Last Listing description (January 2013)

Solid brick home close to Kmart & Ogilvie High
Very convenient for your children! They can walk to a choice of schools from here and be quite independant. Woolworths, Kmart and other shops are quite close. The house itself is solid and sound, but needs decorating throughout. The main bedroom has a shower room next to it which could become an ensuite. Bedroom 2 is a large double bedroom, and there is a 3rd bedroom or sunroom off the large lounge. The lounge has a wood heater as well as a heat pump. The kitchen is bit dated, but has a sunny meals area and room for a couch and opens directly to outside with no steps. There is a collection of sheds for garden tools and a workshop. A lovely, solid home with a good feel and loads of potential!
