Park up the car, stroll, cycle or run to work - life couldn't be easier.

The home has rested proudly on its flat lot for over 100 years. Be greeted by a front garden and the charm of a rolled veranda. Indoors is spacious and offers 3 bedrooms and a couple of different living options. The modern kitchen is semi open plan with a large dining area, the space is heated by a built-in wood burner and is large enough that it has doubled as the main living room in the past. The lounge room is at the front of the property and has a gas heater. The home enjoys a sense of spaciousness due to the high ceilings that have been retained through most of the home. Other period features include a claw foot bath and wooden floorboards.

Outside the backyard offers plenty of space for the kids to kick around or the pets to run free. French doors open onto decking, and there is plenty of storage with a shed the size of a garage and further storage sheds.
