Built in 1900 from local stone, the home retains its original features including 12-foot ceilings, Baltic pine flooring, stained glass feature windows, picture rails and fireplaces. The original outhouse still stands in the backyard, today used to store garden tools.

Imagine harvesting your own fruit and vegies from the extensive vegetable garden and large variety of fruit trees established by the current owners.
