Secured in late 2024, this beautifully renovated and extended character home in Claremont was the ideal purchase for a new migrant from New Zealand. Purchasing with finance, the buyer aimed to sell their NZ home soon after securing this property—a goal that successfully eventuated. Their primary search criteria included a home with excellent solar orientation and warm wooden floors, both of which this property delivered in abundance.
