Tucked away in a private, established setting, this 1931-built character home is a hidden sanctuary offering space, warmth, and timeless appeal. Featuring stunning polished native timber, high stud ceilings, and generous proportions, it seamlessly blends classic craftsmanship with modern comforts. The open-plan family room and country-style kitchen flow into a separate lounge, where French doors open to a spacious outdoor entertaining area above the double garage.

Large picture windows invite in the morning sun and frame a picturesque, elevated outlook. With three bedrooms, including a master that opens onto a second deck, plus a sunroom that functions as a fourth bedroom or home office, this home is designed for flexible living. A refurbished bathroom with a spa bath, a second toilet and shower in the laundry, a wood burner, two heat pumps, a heat transfer system, and gas hot water ensure year-round comfort.

Set on a 1606m2 section, the terraced grounds provide ample space for children to play beneath the shade of a magnificent deciduous tree, creating a peaceful and private haven while still enjoying the convenience of town living. With a generous 145m2 floor area and excellent storage options, including a double garage, this home is a rare find for those seeking character, comfort, and space.
