Forget the cookie-cutter and step into something spectacular. A two-level home wrapped in stone cladding, capped with a tiled gabled roof, and marked by that bold green garage door that turns heads from the street. It’s a house with presence, offering four bedrooms, two bathrooms, generous living zones.

The exterior hints at gothic charm, yet inside the mood is bright and contemporary. An open-plan kitchen blends light countertops with warm timber cabinetry, softened by a floral Roman blind that gives it warmth and soul. Sunshine streams through Crittall-style glass and sliding doors, spilling across the dining and living spaces.

The main lounge is a modern classic: chandelier overhead, fireplace with a mantel anchoring the room, and wide doors opening straight to the garden. It’s a room that manages both winter cosiness and summer generosity with ease.

Upstairs, the bedrooms line a wide hallway. The master has an ensuite and bathtub, an attic-like retreat for switching off. A family room currently styled with a double and single makes the perfect kids’ quarters, while another doubles neatly as a home office. The family bathroom keeps routines running smoothly, and a second toilet adds everyday practicality.

Outside, the setting is as established as it is inviting. Fully fenced and landscaped, the grounds are dotted with raised garden beds, lush trees and seasonal bursts of colour from daisies and blossoms. The paved driveway offers a tidy welcome, while the patio is the natural gathering point for friends, firepits or quiet evenings.
