Packed with mid-century style, this warm, tumbled brick home, has a striking, modernist form with pitched ceilings, providing an intrigue of architectural angles.

There are multitudinous full-height timber windows throughout, flooding the home with light and the consistent use of raw brick work, and timber, lends and evocative, textural experience. The house contains three-bedrooms, a variety of open social spaces and a clever floorplan, that privatises the master wing. To the north-east, the home flows to beautifully planted and productive gardens.

Set back from the road, with driveway leading to brick, double carport, the home sits low within the leafy site. The raked roof creates deep eaves that shelter and shade. A lovely row of hanging plants ushers to period timber door and into the charming, tiled foyer.

Semitransparent brick and timber, bespoke shelving, allows you to peek through to the living area beyond. Feature brick fireplace, potbelly stove, lofty, angled timber ceilings, and stunning floor to ceiling windows create a warm and spacious, sociable arena. Flowing to semi-enclosed rear office - a quiet space to work productively - overlooking enclosed courtyard, that beckons tropical display, lacy fernery.

To the left of the entry foyer is the moody master bedroom in rich teal, flowing to walk-in-robe with striking, black cabinetry. The newly renovated ensuite, delights with its combo of rich grey, floor-to-ceiling tiling, matt black hardware, offset by soft oak, wall hung vanity.

The open kitchen, dining overlooks the sunny rear garden. Banks of north-east facing glazing flow to the outside, extending the sense of space. Characterised by warm timber and peachy bench tops, this characterful, period kitchen is dappled with sunshine. The raw brick walls to the dining arena, creates the perfect backdrop for chosen mid-century furniture, and a pop of lime green accentuates the pervading happy, playful mood.

A hallway leads to two additional bedrooms with garden views, centred around the family bathroom. Circular tub on raised podium, glass walls and ceiling, feature tiling and timber panelling create a stunning mid-century bathing experience. This atrium bathroom is a gorgeous light well - ideal for long soaks in the tub with a relaxing glass or two.

The garden's plush, flat lawn is conducive to sun lounging, with a great book and there is plenty of space for the kids to play. Natural stone edged garden beds overflow with bulbs, citrus and strappy grasses and paths meander to dedicated herb and vegetable beds. A brick walled, barbecue area with circular portals and tiled bench is shaded by deep pergola. Picture alfresco dining, the table set for plenty, long, perfect, summer afternoons, watching the kids play.
