Solid timber with plenty of life left

  • Lilydale was completed in 2003. Many developments from this period were delivered with solid timber strip or parquet in the bedrooms.
  • These floors have usually been sanded once at most, so there's plenty of timber left.
  • Typical issues: faded patches by windows, water marks near bathrooms and aircon units, and worn varnish at doorways.
