Was a beautiful property that had lots of space and was well presented. We did a lot of back and forwards between places and it was a great location for our needs.

Fendalton Villa needs TLC

Beautiful property but Old and Needing Maintenance. Power went out in kitchen, couldn't find circuit board/fuses. Toilet in master bath quit working, plumber had to be called. Lamp on wall above bed inoperative and loose. Light above sink in master bath is out. Property needs attention before I would recommend. Shame, great location with potential.
