A neutral and elegantly curated décor complements a practical floor plan where tiled entranceway leads to the rear of the home for admirable open plan living.

All three bedrooms are generously proportioned with the master bedroom having a walk-in wardrobe and ensuite with tiled floor. Similarly presented, the main bathroom is handsomely anchored in tiles and comprises of bath, shower, floating vanity, and toilet. A single garage is internal access and carpeted and integrates the laundry tub, while extra parking on the forecourt is flanked by more lawns.
