Inside, stunning 1920's leadlight windows, polished timber floors and high ceilings characterise the light-filled living spaces, all thoughtfully positioned to frame the elevated outlook at every opportunity.

A long hallway leads to the primary living areas at the rear of the top level, where a new contemporary kitchen has stone benchtops, matt black cabinetry, chevron subway splashbacks, an oversized freestanding cooker, and a generous butler's pantry.

The kitchen flows onto a casual dining room and living area, which opens on three sides to a large deck and the adjoining wraparound verandah.

A large library or lounge featuring a wall of bookcases provides a common space to three beautiful bedrooms, all with built-in wardrobes and French doors opening onto the wraparound verandah. A separate home office adjoining the contemporary updated bathroom enjoys a wonderful mountain aspect, and direct external access at the front entry.

A timber staircase leads down to the fully-tiled lower level of the house, where a huge additional lounge room provides the perfect recreation room or space for larger scale entertaining. This area steps out onto the encircling covered patio, vast level lawns and low maintenance private yards. Here, a half basketball court provides hours of entertainment for the kids, along with a swimming pool accompanied by a freestanding pool house with kitchenette.

Two further bedrooms with built-ins reside on the lower level, as well as a laundry, and a traditionally styled family bathroom with clawfoot bathtub.
