A word from the owner
The property is perfect for a large or growing family. Lovely Kitchen/Lounge area over-looking the garden. Much larger than average rear garden compared to other new build properties. Double Garage plus parking for up to 6 cars which is unusual for a new build. Nice, quiet, location but easy walking distance to local schools and amenities.
Melbourne is an affluent area and we are lucky to have fantastic facilities including football, rugby, cricket and tennis clubs all within walking distance of the property. Lovely walks around Melbourne Pool. Plenty of bars/restaurants/shops so no need to travel outside of Melbourne
