A landmark property admired by locals at the river end of one of Fairfield's most beautiful treelined avenues, this substantial tuckpointed-brick residence on a 809m2 allotment (approx) is where a family comes together with love and laughter to live large, entertain guests and walk with ease to nearby cafes, shops, parks and schools.

A celebration of family hospitality and the legacy of warmth and care that shaped this home, a wonderful alfresco setting at the rear includes a dining/preparation room with a full kitchen and a pizza oven, undercover and vine-draped entertainment areas, studio/home office with a bathroom, four-car garage with a cool room and ample secure off-street parking.
