Behind the shopfront, a substantial two-level residence offers flexibility and room for the whole family. Downstairs, a generous kitchen/meals area is complemented by adjoining living and sitting rooms, creating multiple zones to relax and entertain. A practical walk-in pantry, laundry and guest powder room add everyday convenience.

Upstairs, three well-proportioned bedrooms include one with its own private balcony. A large family bathroom with separate shower and bathtub services the accommodation, while a versatile retreat provides another welcome living space and opens onto a huge north facing elevated alfresco terrace – perfect for entertaining or enjoying the sunshine.

Outside, a leafy, private backyard provides a peaceful garden escape, while secure rear laneway access, a lock-up garage and full-length driveway deliver exceptional off-street parking.

The full-length west facing driveway provides an opportunity to expand the dwelling or garden spaces (STCA).
