Graced with high ceilings, leaded windows and specialty timber flooring, the generous living room offers a large flat-screen smart TV and Netflix. The eight-seater dining room flows to a tranquil entertainers’ courtyard with a Weber barbecue and another water feature, along with outdoor dining. Whip up a storm in the well-equipped kitchen including a dishwasher, coffee machine, induction cooktop and large ice maker fridge.
The home comprises four large bedrooms with built-ins and room-darkening shades to encourage a sleep-in. On the entry level, one bedroom offers a king bed with garden views, the second bedroom has a queen bed with water views, while the third bedroom has two single beds and overlooks the courtyard.
