Overview

Comfortable, Affordable Move-In Ready Cottage with Dual Occupancy Potential (STCA)

Nestled in the quiet, no-through end of Christo Road, this cottage-style home offers that elusive combination so many buyers are chasing – a comfortable, affordable, move-in ready base with genuine room to grow or develop as your needs change over time. From the moment you step inside, the home feels warm and inviting. Its bright, north-facing orientation floods the interiors with natural light, highlighting the beautiful, polished timber boards and high ceilings that add to the airy, spacious feel.

Adjacent, the updated kitchen has been cleverly designed to maximise storage. There's a surprising amount of space here for all your appliances, pantry items and cooking essentials.
