There's the convenience of a downstairs bedroom suite with walk in robe and marble ensuite (access to the pool) which is also fitted out with home theatre equipment. The favourite room of the house is the fabulous north facing indoor-outdoor room with Beefeater barbecue kitchen (2nd Vintec fridge) and corner stacker-sliding doors to the honed bluestone alfresco area overlooking the solar/gas heated pool with 2 shallow ends and fully tiled spa; and the purpose built basketball key. Upstairs, there are 4 more bedroom suites including the palatial main bedroom with its double shower spa ensuite and dressing room; plus a relaxing upstairs living room with balcony.
