Enjoy the feeling of being above everything else? This charming, four-bedroom home could warrant a closer look.
Just a few blocks away from the Nepean River, the two-storey property in Leonay towers above the surrounding neighbourhood.
Rising grandly from its sloped driveway, the home also has a variety of features that make the most of its elevated position, including multiple alfresco areas with sweeping views of the river, district, and beyond.
Both levels feature covered front verandas, and an entertainment space is located at the side.
This provides a 180-degree view of the area, giving the impression the space is perched on treetops.

Inside, hardwood floors and timber window frames add an organic touch.
This theme continues in the kitchen, where wooden cabinets and a touch of leadlight glass bring a country feel to the open space.
While the kitchen and dining room share the same walls, the living room at the entrance can be closed off.
Floor-to-ceiling windows and a glass door allow natural light to stream into the space and give those sitting in the room a good glimpse of the view from the front porch.
Another loungeroom upstairs offers an even better view of the district.
Opening to both the front and side terrace, the room has a wood burner and the same rich timber floorboards as the lower level.
Each bedroom has its own charm.
