The Owner Loves ….
“The big back yard is perfect for kids; there are so many places to play, and they love the raised veggie patches in the enclosed front garden. We adore watching sunsets over the nearby wetlands, and at night it’s romantic watching the lights come on over the Barwon Heads Bridge.”
