Straight out of a storybook, this sweet character cottage is nestled amongst rambling gardens and kissed by sunshine.

Polished floorboards, French doors and white timber panelling paint a cosy scene, while the layout, with three bedrooms at the front and open-plan living at the rear, makes for comfortable family living and entertaining.

With a classic period-style kitchen and bathroom, you can simply unpack and enjoy the weatherboard home's welcoming embrace.

Set in a quiet street, a 900 metre walk from Rockdale Station, shops and cafes, the property is a perfect foot-in to the wonderful Bayside lifestyle.
