INSIDE THE HOUSE

• From the moment you step through the original timber entry doors the mid century features are everywhere starting with the light spacious living room that enjoys a bank of floor to ceiling windows to over one complete wall and full height mirrors to another enhancing the sense of light and space and further capturing the leafy tranquility of the location within the house. The charm and character of the room is completed by the working stone fireplace;

• The dining room again enjoys the benefit of the mirrors and floor to ceiling original timber framed doors and windows this time taking in the lush and private back garden;

• The kitchen is moderately recent with plenty of bench and storage space plus Ariston stove, oven, rangehood and Miele dishwasher and is adjoined by a spacious meals area with further storage and shelving;

• The master bedroom directly accesses the patio and has its own walk in robe and ensuite bathroom complete with double vanity, shower, toilet and plenty more storage;

• The oversized rumpus is the height of 60s sophistication and style complete with timber paneling, polished timber bar and a wine store plus the more modern accompaniment of air conditioning;

• Bedroom 2, rumpus and family bathroom all look inwards to the central garden courtyard while bedroom 3 has full height timber framed windows and door to the patio looking out into the garden;

• Cardiff Air evaporative cooling system;

• The covered patio to the rear has been fully screened;

• Double lock up garage with automatic doors and additional spaces for storage and workshop;

• A separate building to the rear also original to the property has been previously used as a bedroom with private patio but could easily be used as an office space or better still, converted to a granny flat as water is already plumbed to the building.
