This property has at least three trump cards: a classic, beautifully presented residence; a prized location putting Watergardens Town Centre and station within a two-minute zip in the car; and a block of about 1140 square metres.
The block, shaped in such a way that there’s space to erect a second side-by-side house, STCA, adds considerably to the attraction of the property – whether to add value or to luxuriate in the extra space.

The open-plan layout includes no less than five living zones: a carpeted lounge room with adjoining dining room; a casual meals space with bay window; a rumpus area with second bay window; and a sitting area.
Wall paint is a creamy sandstone, carpet is grey, and grey roman blinds dress the living areas’ windows, while drapes and sheers appear in bedrooms.
Everything is fresh, and large windows admit abundant morning and afternoon light.
Neighbouring the laundry, the large kitchen has loads of cupboards in a shade matching the walls, soft-grey laminate benches, a corner pantry, a dishwasher and stainless-steel wall oven and 900mm gas cooktop.
Ranged along a north-heading hallway are the four fitted bedrooms, the main bathroom with the tub under a lovely big window, plus a separate toilet.
The large main bedroom, with a split-system, has twin walk-through robes, and a dual-basin en suite with the luxury of a tub to soak away the day’s cares.
Out back, a concrete patio is the spot for a barbie, while a future pergola would provide an escape from the westerly sun. The yard has thriving lawn and is fenced off for security for kids and pets. A garden shed sits on the other side of that fence, an area also suitable as a dog run.
Also on offer are ducted heating and cooling, CCTV cameras, electric roller shutters, a remote-controlled double garage, and solar panels currently on 68 cents a kilowatt rebate.
