This beautifully maintained 1920s Californian bungalow offers timeless appeal with all the modern comforts needed for relaxed mountain living. Set on a generous block in a quiet cul-de-sac, the single-level, double-brick home features period details such as polished timber floors, stained glass windows, and soaring ceilings, all complemented by thoughtful updates throughout.

A modern gas kitchen with quality appliances and ample storage adjoins the space, while two solid jarrah Dutch doors open to allow a refreshing cross-breeze during the warmer months.
