To initially access the property, you enter through the double garage that accommodates two cars. This level also has a landing with a clothesline and a BBQ entertaining area. There is also a laundry and bedroom on this level, which has two king single beds.

The entire space is fresh, stylishly decorated and offers views in almost every room. The next level down is where you will find the living room, dining room, kitchen, master suite with king bed and spa bathroom.
