Murrumbateman NSW 2582

Yes, the home certainly comes with that wonderful welcoming feel that only our more traditional village properties have.

The 57m2 detached cottage is separately power-metered from the main home and has 2 bedrooms, a very functional kitchen, open plan living/dining with a solid fuel heater and air-conditioning, plus a bathroom and laundry. The cottage is very comfortable and besides being an obvious rental opportunity, would suit teenagers or live-in grandparents.

The property's 2,023m2/1/2ac block carries a selection of mature trees and good grassed open recreation spaces. There's also a double garage/workshop, and a 6m x 3m garden utility/storage shed.

Essentially, this beautifully presented village property provides you with a brilliant village way of life, plus a selection of opportunities.

Lovely property!
