The kitchen and living areas are spacious with good flow, and the house has a distinct character with extensive wood features throughout. It is warm and cosy, with a log burner and heat transfer system. There are three large bedrooms, including one with its own sink, as well as an additional separate toilet. The main bathroom was renovated approximately six years ago and includes a bath and underfloor heating. A rear balcony connects two of the bedrooms, and the third bedroom can also function well as a work-from-home space or studio. The property is located in a quiet, family-friendly cul-de-sac with a strong community feel. A playground and local reserve are approximately two minutes’ walk away, with walking tracks leading down to the bay. The nearby beach includes BBQ areas and tennis courts.
