Free piano

Megan from Ohariu

Lovely piano free to a good home. No longer used in our house so it is time for a new family to enjoy.

Has 2 keys that are a bit sticky but otherwise good.

Must pick up, from Ohariu Valley. It is very heavy so probably a 3 man job with trailer.

Message me if keen 🙂
