The character features include high ceilings, a brick fireplace in the lounge and jarrah floorboards under the existing floor coverings that are waiting to be uncovered and polished. The iron roof has been replaced in recent years and shelters the home from winter storms.Outside there is a small garden shed and a single free-standing garage. Underneath the house there is room to lock up bicycles and similar items. The back of the block is currently used as a free range chicken run, but could just as easily be the location for a veggie patch and an orchard to grow the fruit and veg that Mt Barker's climate is renowned for. The existing gardens are mostly shrubs with a backyard lawn meaning that it is low maintenance, although a keen gardener could work wonders here.Please contact Garry Moir on 0492 817 947 for more information or to arrange your inspection.
