SYDNEY: 49 Bestic Street, Rockdale, NSW 2216

Elsewhere, the home has been extensively modernised, with new kitchen and bathroom fixtures bringing the property into the contemporary age.

Further, the home is located on the ‘high-side’ of Bestic Street, which means the elevated back veranda, which flows on from the kitchen, gives far-reaching district views.
