This area works in harmony with family activities and is connected to the rear covered deck where there is space to eat, lounge, entertain or just relax.

Keeping with the generous proportions of the home, a traditional style bathroom with separate shower enclosure services four good sized bedrooms including the master which boasts Mt. Coot-tha views and a cosy bay window seat,creating the perfect spot to curl up with a book or watch a storm roll in.
