A detached outbuilding in the large private yard provides the perfect space for a home office, creative workspace, or additional storage. Just steps from the waterfront and the vibrant shops and cafés of Cook Street Village, this exceptional property with extensive gardens offers the convenience of a low-maintenance lifestyle without strata fees or restrictions.
