This individually designed, 2011 built home features expansive ground floor living space, 3 en-suite double bedrooms a gated private driveway and a substantial detached double garage.

A generous gravel driveway approached through remote controlled timber double gates, provides generous parking and access into a larger than average detached double garage extending to approximately 545 sq ft (50.63 sq m).
