– A stunning hand-built hardwood timber deck runs the width of the house and has opened up the indoor spaces to make them lighter and brighter; it’s perfect for entertaining, alfresco dining, soaking in the bush setting and all-weather play with roll-down shade cloth; step down from the deck to a paved north-facing patio
– Large secure level yard with new fencing has large shady trees, plus an array of mature fruit trees – enjoy fresh sweet juicy mangoes straight from the branch, citrus and plums; double lock-up garage plus workshop with fresh roof; additional tank water filtered and plumbed to house; solar hot water with electric boosters so you never run out; 807sqm offers the potential to take the renovations further with extensions.
