This spectacular character home with both front and rear access has been tastefully renovated and loved with the intention that this family had found their "forever after home" and would never leave. No expense has been spared with the quality of finishes that have been added during their seven years of renovating and improving their home. However, situations change and my instructions from the sellers are very clear: SELL! AS WE ARE MOVING INTERSTATE!

Situated on a very quiet street, where families get to enjoy their annual communal Christmas parties, and kids can happily walk the streets during the Halloween season trick-or-treating in a wonderful & safe community. If this sounds like the perfect environment to bring up your family, then look no further.

The flexible configuration of this home leaves you with endless opportunities, as lounges can be used as bedrooms if needed, or vice versa.
