Set on 776sqm block among spring flowering trees, the landscaped garden is easy-care and offers you a calm and peaceful setting.

"A wide, welcoming entry foyer with a fretwork feature leads to the north-facing lounge room adorned by a graceful, highly ornate vaulted plaster ceiling, leadlight windows, a decorative fireplace and a sunny alcove window seat."
