Property Description:
The three bedroom cottage is constructed of brick with a rendered finish and painted a pleasant green. Soothing greens are also used in the main living room, which features an impressive gas log fire with a beautiful red gum mantle. In fact the cottage is furnished with many fine River Red Gum pieces hand crafted by host Graham, a qualified cabinet maker. These include the coffee table and the entertainment unit in the living room and the bed heads and bedside drawers. The red gum furniture together with local photography, displayed on the walls, adds a distinctive "Echuca" personality to the interior.
