On the top floor is the main bedroom with original pressed metal ceilings and a large bank of saw-toothed windows from the original factory, which brings in abundant natural light. There is an ensuite and built in wardrobes.
The second floor is open design with a kitchen and accompanying large pantry, dining area, a beautiful cosy lounge room area and an inviting westerly facing balcony. Beneath the passage to the second-floor bathroom lies a large, under the floor, storage and wine cellar.
A generous mezzanine space, on the way to the ground floor, is the perfect space for a home office or another living area.
Downstairs are 2 bedrooms, each with an ensuite, a large living area and laundry.
