A double-glazed side door opens out to the side, often used by the current family as the front door.

The stair has a runner carpet and splits at the first landing. Staircase leads to the left to the master bedroom and bathroom. The double master bedroom has a double-glazed corner window, with views to the front and down George Street.

The garden to the rear is enclosed with the majority laid to lawn with a slabbed patio are directly out from the kitchen, making this space ideal for alfresco entertaining.
