The homes original timber floorboards add a lovely sense of warmth and charm throughout the home, which could be enhanced with a further sand and polish to bring them back to their best.
The weatherboard and iron roofed home was built approximately 105-year-ago and relocated from Sydney in 1956 to begin the next chapter of its story in this historic riverside village.

The home has four good-sized bedrooms, with the largest space at the rear offering an ideal area to create a cosy living room that overlooks the backyard and has direct access to the covered verandah.
The second-largest bedroom would make an obvious master suite, with proximity to the family bathroom and direct access to the enclosed sunroom providing all the elements needed to create a private parents retreat.
