The double Garage (with 600L fridge & dart board) has space for one car, with space for two additional cars in the driveway.

The fully appointed kitchen is equipped with cooking utensils, crockery, cutlery, microwave, Aldi pod coffee machine, toaster, kettle, etc. plus a double sink, fridge, dishwasher, 900mm electric oven and 4-burner gas cook top with wok burner.
