Set deep into a large corner allotment amidst well established gardens with Croydon Secondary College, train station and Main Street shops just a short walk away.
A typical wide central hallway is the spine of the home. Timber dado lines the walls, picture rails add old world appeal, but it is the high ornate pressed metal ceilings that are most impressive. The huge master bedroom off to the right boasts such a ceiling, as does the formal front sitting/living room on the left.
