The original three-bedroom cottage comes with outbuildings that allow for, all up, five bedrooms. There is commercial zoning.

It was sold through Ray White agent David Gordon who had its listed in conjunction with Bangalow Real Estate.

The property is being offer with painted murals in the courtyard, on the side of the house, in two bedrooms and in the living area.

In its backyard, there’s a vintage AirStream caravan with a deck and Japanese hot tub, and a Studebaker ute decked out with tropical plants.

The selling price has not been revealed.
