Off the entrance hall to the left are three great sized bedrooms, all carpeted, two with built in robes, the front room with a ceiling fan. To the right is the spacious lounge room. Corner windows flood this space with natural light, a dormant brick fire place with timber mantle housing a gas heater the other standout. The lounges end opens to the dining space adjoining the kitchen, once again hardwood floors star here. The kitchen is a culinary delight featuring mammoth bench and cupboard space, an electric cooker, pantry and split system heating and cooling. Preserved period features include high ceilings, decorative cornices and picture rails, a common thread through the entire residence.
