Plus, the Forster Golf Club is only 300 metres away, providing a great opportunity for a day on the greens or an easy holiday meal. While the property is set for a renovation in April 2025, it’s packed with character and full of charm. Upstairs, you’ll find two bedrooms with built-in wardrobes. The first features a comfortable double bed, while the second is ideal for groups or families, offering three single beds, a ceiling fan, and air-conditioning. The upstairs kitchenette is equipped with a microwave, making it easy to prepare a quick snack; with the adjacent dining area offering a modern setting for four.
