Architect designed light-filled family home with enviable views

Architects Peter Dalton & John Firth had a brief that they fulfilled beautifully with this home: embrace the natural sunlight and deliver open plan living with large windows that frame the serene bush reserve and park opposite.

The house combines original designer features with fresh paint, new carpet and refurbished timber balcony, which makes it move-in ready with scope to add your own stamp.

You enter the house into the spacious open plan living area which captures all the sunlight & aspect over to the reserve, with sliding doors leading our onto the large timber deck. The functional kitchen has a large walk-in pantry and breakfast bar. Down the hallway there is a spacious linen press and the 2 generous bedrooms that offer full size wardrobes. Conveniently located near the bedrooms is a full bathroom with separate toilet.

Unique to this property is a fully self-contained space downstairs, which would make a perfect work from home space or a teenager/guest retreat. This bright space is generous enough to accommodate a range of uses, and includes a full bathroom and separate entry.

Last but certainly not least is the terraced yard that has been planted out with mature citrus trees and Australian natives. The yard provides direct access to the popular cycle and walking track of Fernleigh - one of the few properties in Westwood Ave that has this access.
