Spacious, stylish & superb townhouse living
Welcomed by high ceilings and a profusion of natural light, the home’s ready-to-enjoy interior comprises three bedrooms (two large with built-in robes) all sharing a spotless central bathroom and additional powder room (2nd WC).
The sizeable front living room provides the perfect space to relax and flows through to the open dining area adjoined by a well-appointed kitchen with breakfast bench, stainless-steel cooking appliances and dishwasher.
Other stand-out features include ducted heating and split-system air conditioning (x3) providing year-round comfort, along with a full-size laundry and under-stair kid’s snug/storeroom.
Step outside to discover a wide courtyard complete with entertaining deck, retractable awning, established perimeter gardens and high fences for privacy, plus rear access into the garage.
A choice of bus routes around the corner, it’s also walking distance to acres of parkland and the convenience of Ruthven Station, as well as easy access to local schools, kinder/childcare facilities, Broadway shops and eateries.
