A Splendid Family Home on 6.5 Acres
The driveway meanders through the most glorious array of native Australian plants to a home that has been stylishly renovated and extended into a wonderful family home.

You will be entranced with the banana plants growing fruit in our southern state and luscious plantings that surround. Beyond are a pizza oven and barbecue and more wonderful gardens. Over 5000 varieties of natives have lovingly been planted and nurtured as well as a new orchard. There are now 4 bedrooms, 2 with ensuites, the main with a spa for relaxing, and a family bathroom. Another large living room adjoins the master bedroom which opens onto the garden.
