Comprised of brick and tile, this 1980-era build has been completely renovated, including new electrical wiring/panel board and CCC. A tasteful blend of old and new, the charm is maintained with the rimu and rattan doors amongst new Quick Step flooring and modern comforts.

Leading to the master suite, you'll discover a tranquil space with a walk-in wardrobe, ensuite, and private balcony where you can enjoy bird-watching or your morning coffee.
Down the hall, you'll find two well-appointed double bedrooms, a study, and the family bathroom. A separate laundry room gives access to the internal garage and the outdoors with a sheltered alcove. The contemporary kitchen includes high-end appliances and a gas stovetop for precision cooking. Chocolate mosaic tiles ooze sophistication, bathed in natural light pouring in the picture windows.
Adjacent to the kitchen is a separate formal dining room for entertaining friends with French doors, an original feature, open to the heart of the home.
