The residence features a spacious open-plan living and dining space crowned by striking raked plywood ceilings and warmed by an open fireplace, creating a comfortable and inviting atmosphere year-round. A four-metre built-in daybed along expansive windows provides a peaceful retreat to enjoy the outlook or relax anytime.

The well-equipped kitchen balances functionality and understated elegance, highlighted by a stainless steel island bench, gas cooktop, electric oven, dishwasher, and generous storage.
Three bedrooms accommodate diverse needs, including a main bedroom with built-in robe and air conditioning, a second bedroom with private balcony access, and a bunk room perfectly suited for children or guests.

Generous decks extend outdoor living across two levels, ideal for entertaining or unwinding amid the serene bushland setting, complemented by an outdoor shower nestled beneath the trees.
