Entering the home through a stunning stained glass panelled front door, you will find open plan living/dining/kitchen, 3 spacious bedrooms, ensuite and bathroom, hall space all on one ‘living’ level. This surprise-package leads down a light-filled enclosed staircase to the rear ground level and under-house space, where you will find a sizeable craft room, mud room, third toilet and the laundry.

On a huge 1024m2 block in the sought-after hinterland village of The Channon, your privacy is assured while conveniently being a short few steps away from a long list of amenities including schools, the General Store and the well-patronised Tavern. Famous as the Home of the Country Market, once a month The Channon becomes a hub of social activity, colour and entertainment!
