Built in 1856, this home has been extended over the years and lovingly updated in character with the property. As you explore your future home you will be delighted by the large country farmhouse style kitchen with ample workbench and cupboard space. In the dining area you'll see one of the original thick stone walls (400mm) that keep you cool in summer and help to reduce your cooling bills. There are three great-sized bedrooms, including a huge master with en-suite and fitted wardrobes. You'll also find a lounge, family bathroom, and laundry/boot room.
