You can't help but be tempted by this terrific 3 bedroom 2 bathroom two-storey townhouse residence that is privately positioned to the rear in a low-maintenance complex of just four properties, in close proximity to all of those important everyday amenities.
Down-sizers, astute investors and those simply seeking something a little more "lock-up-and-leave" will all be left salivating at the prospect of a practical floor plan that makes living very easy indeed - for all involved. Downstairs, a carpeted front lounge room welcomes you inside and precedes an open-plan dining and kitchen area - complete with under-stair storage and direct access out to the courtyard.
The kitchen itself plays host to a breakfast bar - for quick bites, double sinks, tiled splashbacks, a storage pantry and stainless-steel range-hood, gas-cooktop, oven and dishwasher appliances. Back to the front of the home, gorgeous double French doors reveal a carpeted third bedroom that is brilliant in its versatility and can easily be converted into a study, or home office, if need be. The second bathroom is also on the ground floor and features a toilet, vanity and shower.
Upstairs, a huge carpeted master suite is the pick of the bedrooms with its own covered balcony, a split-system air-conditioning unit, built-in wardrobes and a bonus walk-in robe behind double sliding doors - leading into a spacious ensuite that comprises of a shower, a separate bathtub, twin "his and hers" vanities, under-bench storage and more. The second carpeted bedroom up here is also generous in its proportions, has its own split-system air-conditioner for climate control and benefits from ample built-in-robe space.
Out back, the lovely paved entertaining courtyard under the trees is somewhat protected from the elements by a shade sail above head, creating an ideal retreat where you and your guests can sit and relax within the most tranquil of garden settings.
Hop, skip or jump to the handy Harrison Street village around the corner - home to a pizzeria, bakery, newsagency and more, next door to a lovely park. The likes of St Lawrence Primary School, Balcatta Primary School, more lush green parks and reserves, Primewest Northlands Plaza Shopping Centre and fantastic family restaurants are also very much within arm's reach, with only a matter of minutes separating your front doorstep from more shopping at Stirling Central, the new Roselea Complex, new-look Karrinyup Shopping Centre and even Westfield Innaloo.
The revamped Balcatta Senior High School, Stirling Train Station, the freeway, both Trigg and Scarborough Beaches and major arterial roads - for easy access to the city, Perth Airport and even our picturesque Swan Valley - are also just a stone's throw away from your front door. If this isn't living convenience, then we don't know what is!
