Can't really see the point of buying a tiny little block and swamping it with a thumping great Yank-style barn.

What is considered a large block I have no idea?

Don't know Shell Cove (even though it keeps popping up in my realestate.com.au email alerts!) - but if you could live slighty further south, Kiama Downs represents very good value for money and ticks some of the boxes you mention above.

Hi
Nice house. My sister has built one about that size with just a few differences in QLD but it cost her more cause they had to have extra bits included for her hubby. Havent seen it yet just pics but mum and dad says its very nice.

Just my experience, the house is beautiful though, and if I had a couple of million and a maid, I might consider it!

life is for living, not worrying about big ticket status symbols and the bills that come with it.
Plenty of wee houses in Perth.
