With four generous bedrooms, three bathrooms, indoor and outdoor living areas and undercover parking for three cars, the property is an ideal fit for families of all ages. Perfectly positioned on the wide end of Albert St, it is a few minutes' walk from cafes and shops on vibrant Pakington St, supermarket shopping on Shannon Ave and family-friendly Sparrow Park. It's a breeze to entertain all year round with an open-plan living, dining and kitchen area that looks out via a wall of glass and concertina doors to a north-facing undercover deck.
