This is a wonderful room in which to spend time with friends and family, enjoying the views of the garden, paddock and hills beyond.

An archway leads through to an additional space at the rear, currently used as a music room with French doors filling the area with natural sunlight and opening up to one of the patios surrounding the property.

A door from the music room leads through to the study, which could easily be used as a fifth bedroom and also has access to the side garden and patio.
