Downsizer's Delight
You don't see a lot of this in Darlington, where the properties are generally high maintenance or big and bold, with the prices to match. This brick and iron marvel offers a rare opportunity to actually downsize into a Darlington property - one that's easy to care for. With most block and house sizes in the area being very large, this 705sqm property still offers plenty of room to move while also being blissfully undemanding. If you've been pondering the joys of pottering in a veggie patch, tending to a flock of chooks, or simply sitting in the shade of a verandah and enjoying a cuppa with the birds, this home ticks all of those boxes and more.
This is a duplex so you will have neighbours close by, but you won't be living in each other's pockets. Get comfy and enjoy your own space; with 3 bedrooms, 2 bathrooms, and a big living area, you've still got plenty of privacy here. Warmer days offer the opportunity to share meals on the patio with friends and family, while the charming and cosy wood fire means chilly Hills winters are no longer something to dread. No matter the season, this is a wonderful spot to live a simple and joy-filled life.
Features Include:
· Rare easy-care duplex half
· 1986 built brick & iron duplex
· 3 bedrooms
· 2 bathrooms
· Big open plan living
· High raked ceilings
· Cosy wood fire
· Split system air conditioning
· Single garage

Do you live for your bike rides or are you pulled out the front door for a run each day by your dog? This property backs onto parkland that takes only a moment to get to, and is tucked in amongst national parklands, reserves and quarries, and countless tracks and trails. Schools and the aquatic centre are nearby, with the theatre and sports clubs only slightly further afield. 10 minutes from Midland and only half an hour from the city, this is a fantastic property for anyone thinking about simplifying - and enjoying - their life.
