Spacious open plan kitchen and family room area opening out onto covered timber decking and the north facing back yard. Upstairs a separate, third living zone enjoys delightful sun light and makes a great teenage break out zone for the 3rd and 4th bedrooms. At the rear of the home and still under 11 foot ceilings a second study area or sunroom could be converted to a bedroom or opened up to enlarge the living space, plus a large laundry with excellent storage.
