Beautiful house in great location!

This house was perfect for our weekend visit to Newcastle. The junction shops right across the road and a quick drive down to the beach. The house was immaculate on arrival and had a great open plan living area downstairs, with bedrooms upstairs. Would recommend!

I rang the contact number about this during business hours on the Friday and had to leave a message. Soon after I called the situation escalated with the loudest alarm ive ever heard going off each time the door bell was pressed. This was all occurring while getting ready for my wedding and while my baby was napping. The alarm was so loud we could no remain in the house and my baby had to be taken across the road and down the street to get away from the noise. I phone the property manager again who told m
