A plumbed gas BBQ and integrated Polk Audio speakers further enhance the home's entertaining credentials. Downstairs, the home offers a substantial and highly versatile lower level. There are two separate multipurpose rooms, allowing for a range of uses such as additional living zones, home office spaces, a gym, guest accommodation or media room.
