Standing at the apex of two pretty tree-lined streets, you'd be forgiven for thinking this home on a 446m2 corner block is your standard single-fronter.
Boasting quality two-storey additions, a coach-house and auto double carport, it's anything but!
However, it's only when you step inside that it becomes strikingly obvious that this is no ordinary house.
Prepare to be swept away by exotic colour and texture combinations featuring extensive use of marbles, granites and timbers that give this home its unique vibe.
If the minimalist in you rebels, then a lick of white paint and some neutral sisal is all that is required.
A wonderful feeling of space is apparent as you enter the living areas.
There are four including a formal lounge and dining room separated by french doors, with more french doors to the side.
At the rear, open-plan kitchen/dining spaces enjoy backyard views and feature a designer beech workspace with granite counters and stunning stainless steel cooking appliances including a Smeg 900mm gas cook top and twin ovens.
Upstairs, a large loft retreat leads to a double bedroom where guests and teens can enjoy privacy, while you relax in the master bedroom with its striking bespoke wardrobe, marble tiled ensuite and cottage-garden frontal aspect.
A full family bathroom, powder room, custom-fitted laundry and computer room with plenty of storage fan out at the end of the hallway where they are tucked between the downstairs living spaces.
The backyard is a haven of tranquillity with a goldfish pond and pergola walkway to the auto double carport and coach-house that you will soon find a use for - think home office, games room or artisan workshop.
Complete with ducted reverse cycle air conditioning and a security alarm; this most individual of homes is also fantastically located.
Walk to the Arkaba Shopping Centre, Duthy Street cafes and specialty shops, and the South parklands.
It's a lifestyle package that's hard to beat!
