Outside, Manorscapes has re-designed the rear garden with lush greenery, quality paving, and reticulation creating a private, low-maintenance escape. A generous carport off Shule Lane and a practical shed add to the ease of daily living, ensuring this residence functions as beautifully as it looks.
Occupying the original portion of the residence are three bedrooms with built-in robes. The main suite and third bedroom enjoy semi-ensuite access to the beautifully renovated bathroom, where a separate bath and shower add a touch of indulgence.

Perfectly placed on the cusp of it all, 225 Brisbane Street delivers a lifestyle that's as vibrant as its postcode. Stroll to Hyde Park for your morning reset, sip something exceptional at Vincent Wine or Wines of While, and hit the courts at Robertson Park Tennis Club just moments from home.
