Designed to pay tribute to the history of the Hills, this residence is nestled on five mostly arable acres. Basking in northern light filtered through mature gum trees, it has three distinct living zones. The open timber kitchen and living room share a meals area and have two sets of double doors leading to a verandah that extends around the front of the home. A fireplace provides winter warmth in the formal lounge room which merges to an alfresco that looks over the green landscape. Bedrooms are spread through the layout and the master enjoys a private spot with its own ensuite and walk-in wardrobe. A second two bedroom dwelling promises rental income or would be perfect as guest or in law accommodation. Timber windows and floors combine with period-style finishes to create a rural retreat just three minutes to Galston Village with cafes, Aldi, medical services and Galston Public School. • North-rear aspect with circular driveway • Comfortable interiors with potential to update • Skylit bathroom with separate bathtub, large laundry, separate powder room • Study, ceiling fans, excellent storage, built-in wardrobes • Five minutes to childcare and Galston High School, easy access to Berowra Waters, Hornsby Westfield, Castle Towers and transport
