Comfortable house on the edge of a friendly village surrounded by trees.
Our house is quite new, completed in December 2021. It is on a corner block with tree lined streets each way and its own little forest. The house has a bright, well lit main living area with kitchen, dining and lounge, and 2 double French windows with sliding doors going out onto a large deck. There are two bedrooms, one with a double bed and ensuite, the other with a queen bed, separated by the family bathroom and laundry. In the Music Room there is a comfortable single sofa bed and in the Study there is a queen sized sofa bed with sprung mattress.
Outside at the back there is a garden shed, large shed and a double car port. The front garden is still a work in progress with a few raised garden beds but no lawn area. There is a ‘forest’ with seating areas, lovely on a warm day.
The lounge and music room both have reverse cycle air conditioners and there is a gas heater in the lounge.
There are three lots of steps up to the house, the front door, the laundry door and the deck. There are handrails for the front and deck steps but unfortunately the house is not suitable for people with severe mobility issues.
