Set well back on the large dual entry block, access to the home is via a porch leading into a small entry hall. Immediately apparent is a sense of calm and the delightful quality of light that fills the interiors. Large windows with low-profile blinds frame blissful views of the gardens and lawns, wide, blonde timber floors and soft barely-grey walls reflect light and shadows, creating a home with a wonderful sense of welcome and comfort.

A formal lounge with dual aspect glazing sits at the front of the floor plan. This well-proportioned space with its north-east aspect and reverse cycle air conditioning is inviting year-round. The open plan kitchen/meals is a lesson in transforming small and dark into light and open. Glossy white cabinets, charcoal granite benchtops and Carrera marble tiled splashback surround the freestanding stainless-steel oven and dishwasher. Ample space for a family-sized table and double doors to the rear patio and lawn make for easy indoor-outdoor living and entertaining.

A door from the kitchen/meals opens into a large flexible room running along one side of the home. This multi-purpose space – a transformed verandah– has direct access to the rear patio and back yard and is an ideal playroom or casual entertaining area.

Three good-sized bedrooms are arranged off a small central hallway. The main bedroom has reverse cycle air conditioning and a large, east-facing window framing a view of the national park. Open this window at certain times of the year and fall asleep to the sound of the falls in the national park. The shared family bathroom features fully tiled walls and floors, a Roman bath, modern vanity and on-trend black tapware. A separate WC sits outside the bathroom.

The backyard offers the best of alfresco living with a majestic gum creating shade and dappled light on the patio and lawn. A cacophony of birdsong, a white post and rail fence and glimpses of the national park combine to produce an idyllic backdrop to weekend gatherings, impromptu family barbecues or lazy afternoons with a good book. At the north-east corner of the block is a single garage with a roller door and a large powered shed. Reticulated from a high yield quality bore, raised vegetable beds nestle between the garage and Colorbond boundary fence and are set adjacent to a productive selection of fruit trees.

Arriving at this beautifully renovated home feels like discovering a secret. The large block, fantastic location and luminous interiors must be seen to be believed.
