The Entertainer - Decks galore and a man cave

A renovation with star power has swept this five-bedroom home into today's world. Turned on its head by a quality remodel, the double-glazed two-storey residence has completely shed its 1960s skin. Designed for a large family, it offers a stimulating environment where families can spend time together, enjoy the finer things of life, soak up stunning scenery and entertain in style. Spread over a generous 280sqm (more or less) footprint, the home has three versatile living areas, space for everyone's activities and alfresco niches front and rear perfect for entertaining and relaxing. Open-plan living upstairs captures panoramic city views and seamlessly accesses the front balcony. It is anchored by a crisp, white kitchen which dishes up a full array of modern appliances and chic contemporary styling. Three first floor double bedrooms spill outdoors - one onto the front balcony and two onto the spacious rear deck and spa area which beckons for alfresco pleasures, barbecuing and partying. The master bedroom is a heavenly retreat with a walk-in wardrobe opening into an ensuite. A laundry, well-appointed bathroom and separate toilet round off the first floor. There's a lot going on at ground level too, thanks to a fifth bedroom, a bathroom, a recreation room with a toilet, an office, and a three-car garage. This property fits with numerous lifestyle needs, including work from home. It's fabulous for a family with teens and has Airbnb possibilities. Set on a groomed and elevated 1040sqm (more or less) site in a highly prized area, it excites on all levels.
