Vendors Comments:

"We have lived at 508 Gloucester Rd for 11 years and have enjoyed renovating it and creating a beautiful warm and light space and ultimately a lovely family home.

The large open plan downstairs with access to a sunny deck and garden space is perfect for socializing and hosting parties.

The garden provides a lovely quiet green space for relaxing or socializing and being west facing is a glorious sun trap during the summer months.

We have wonderful neighbors and everyone helps each other out with lending items or feeding pets. During the summer the children play in the back lane and are in and out of each other's gardens. It is an extremely friendly and safe neighborhood with excellent local schools as well as greats bars, cafes and shops nearby.'
