This gorgeous circa.1940 bungalow property takes the term 'fringe dwelling' to an entirely new level!

Inside the home, find three spacious bedrooms, a study, bathroom (two WCs) and character features such as original jarrah boards and soaring decorative ceilings. Set on solid limestone footings and with a quaint bullnose veranda, it could be returned to its former glory by a keen renovator.

Buyers to conduct their own due diligence and make enquiries to the City of Vincent).
