Fabulous location ..walks by local creek heaps of birds and trees and close to eateries and shops. House is old and needs a few renos but it's clean cheap and adequate... location is just great.would recommend.
We loved Laurel house in Blackburn! What a lovely location, close to shops, cafes, transport and lots of options for walks in nature! The house itself was so neat and clean and perfect for a family.
Enjoyed our stay, kids appreciated the garden and walking trail. Place was fairly well equipped and comfortable but stove/rangehood very old in need of an upgrade.
Great location as we were there for a basketball carnival. The home/beds were comfortable and it was a peaceful location also.
A few things needing attention- the oven/rangehood were difficult to start needing a lighter. There was no dryer, as listed and the shower was slow and difficult to use.
We were in town to watch the cricket world cup and had a very comfortable stay at the place. The neighbourhood is quiet and our family had a good time.
