With a classic garden gate nestling beneath the cut-out archway of high hedging that naturally gives a cherished degree of privacy, this exceptional Sturt Avenue home immediately captures your attention. Picture perfect on the outside, sophisticated yet family friendly on the inside, it effortlessly allows the contemporary design of an extended three storey layout to stay true its original architecture.

As a further example of the attention to detail that flows throughout, pale blue wall panelling complements the Shaker design of the kitchen and heritage of the house, while plinth lighting adds a subtle glow in the evenings. A matching utility room has side access, and a cleverly incorporated cloakroom completes the ground floor.

Together the additional three rooms share an excellent family bathroom with a high sloping ceiling and a freestanding modern bathtub with telephone taps, an exposed riser and rosehead shower.

Engendering an easy flowing extension of the ground floor, the bi-fold doors of the kitchen/dining room unfold onto a brilliantly broad paved patio. Beneath the establish boughs of climbing Wisteria it extends across to a canopied gazebo that's a heavenly spot for al fresco dining. Clipped Buxus frame a duo of square flowerbeds and feature trees and shrubs pepper and border the large lawn giving plenty of height and texture. With high fencing and hedgerows lending plenty of privacy, these south-west facing gardens produce the ideal excuse to sit back and leave the hubbub of the day behind you.
