A Much Loved Character Home in CBD Central Location
Ornate ceilings, Art Deco cornices and Jarrah hardwood floors are just some of the classic features that make this much-loved home special. Dating from approximately the 1920s–1940s, it combines the character of its era with a new kitchen and bathroom, established gardens and a flat backyard with room to play.
Set across the road from the river, it is a short walk to town, sportsfields, schools, the rail trail and jetty.
