The house was clean, tidy and warm. Furniture left a lot to be desired. Red couch too low to the ground. There aren’t enough casual sitting chairs in Lounge room and tv room. House has been partially renovated and acceptable but could be improved a lot. Very 60’s.

A disappointment

The property looked good in the photos but the reality was much poorer. Shoddy renovations, insufficient and inadequate lounge room furnishings, windows that wouldn't open, unkempt exterior. We won't be back.
