A light-filled formal lounge marks the transition to a vast open-plan rear addition that draws the eye to its timeless provincial style kitchen and gardens beyond via expansive glazing.

Timber tops, a gas cooktop, dishwasher, island/breakfast bar and loads of storage make the kitchen as functional as it is beautiful.

Step out and onto the travertine pavers of a pavilion with a full kitchen, fireplace, servery/bar and cafe blinds that close to make it a room in its own right, steps front that heated pool.
