“You won’t find better than this” as quoted by Don Rash! A completely redecorated kitchen & dining area with polished native wood floors, this then leads to a sundeck with a beautiful garden area. With crystal chandeliers in a hallway that has been stripped back to reveal native rimu timber which give the ambience of yesteryear. 3 good sized bedrooms & large lounge complete this masterpiece. A double garage plus a separate tool shed on a large section, with mature oak trees complemented by an avenue of roses leading to this grand bungalow. This has to be a great investment for the future, just walking distance to schools, town centre (and the club) - very important says Don Rash!
