Welcome to Country Life in this charming circa 1929 built 3 bedroom weatherboard cottage set on a perfectly square 1538sqm parcel of land, flanked by mature trees like the Illawarra flame, tree, ash, liquid amber and more. Rustic outbuildings, fruit trees, enchanted setting, a place to call home, B&B or perhaps cellar door (stcc).

What we love about the property:
The fact that when the purchaser acquired the property way back in 1967 he was told the home was requiring attention, well here she still proudly sits so many years later, a piece of history preserved, awaiting your restoration. So, Carpe Diem, seize the day and make it happen.
