TRANMERE’S sensational views of the city, river and mountain are on full display from this modern family home — it is a showcase of light and space.

It boasts indoor-outdoor entertaining areas highlighted by full-length double-glazed windows and double-stacker sliding doors that open the living zone to an expansive covered sundeck.

The chef-inspired kitchen features a ceramic cooktop and a double oven, engineered stone benchtops, plenty of storage and bench space, a walk-in pantry, soft-close drawers, double fridge space and a breakfast bar for two people.

What a wonderful location.

An open-plan kitchen, dining and spacious living room all make the most of the water and mountain vista.

The family office/study nook is located nearby the living zone and the second, third and fourth bedrooms — each a double-sized space with built-ins.

Further down the hall, the king-sized master bedroom features a walk-in wardrobe as well as a luxurious ensuite with a separate shower, toilet and basin.

In the family bathroom there is a separate shower, bath, vanity, plus a toilet with a basin.
