Description of the home we are offering for exchange
A Victorian two storey terrace in vibrant Marrickville. Upstairs is the master bedroom with queen sized bed that opens onto a balcony and a study/second bedroom with a couch that converts to a double bed, both with air conditioning. Downstairs is the large bathroom with corner bath to soak in, spacious kitchen with dishwasher, dining room and separate cosy lounge room. It also has a very private courtyard garden in which to enjoy our temperate Sydney climate.
It is located right in the heart of Marrickville, with the high street at the end of the street with an array of fresh food stores, fantastic cafes and restaurants. Marrickville is only seven kilometres from the Sydney CBD and there are several buses leaving from the end of the street and two train stations within easy reach, taking about fifteen minutes to get to the city
