    What a great spot - easy access to highway for work, yet in a quiet street with no disturbance. Great accessibility to the nearest shop, pharmacy and hospital (should this have been needed for any reason). Very clean and comfortable, and catered...

This quaint cottage merges convenience, comfort, and affordability. Excellent location for long-stay Hopelands patients and deliveries. Off-street parking, WiFi included, gas, solar and inverter powered, and a dedicated work space.
A quiet and calm neighbourhood that is well situated for access to the Midlands Meander, the Avenues Lifestyle Centre, the Hilton Life Hospital and schools.
