There’s everything to love and nothing to do at this smart family home near schools, kindy and parkland – and just five minutes from town. Brilliantly presented for sale by the proud owners, the well-maintained brick and Colorbond home has made one family happy for several years and is now ready to delight another. In the right price bracket for first home buyers or rental investors, it has practical and inviting indoor and outdoor living spaces. The main open living area includes a carpeted lounge – a comfy room with gas heating. This flows through to the dining space and around the corner to the kitchen, which has good cabinetry, a gas cook-top, electric oven and space for the fridge-freezer. This entire area is sunny and welcoming, with glass doors from the dining space opening onto a sheltered, paved patio. Along the back of the house is an impressive new timber deck. The perfect spot for entertaining and family barbies, this covered area also has a wood burner to take the edge off chilly evenings. The queen-sized master bedroom and the two family bedrooms share the nearby bathroom, which has been renovated in sparkling white and sports a bath, shower and vanity. Fresh paintwork throughout, good flooring and tiling and 10 solar panels for reduced power bills are other benefits of this impressive home. On the manageable 493sqm block is a fenced back yard with grassy areas for the children to play as well as a powered shed-workshop and a garden shed. At the side of the house is the carport, with access to the back yard for stowing the trailer, and there’s extra off-road parking besides. In addition to the back yard, there’s plenty of space for children to work off energy in the park just along the road. The newly redeveloped Mount Lockyer Primary School and Parklands School are within walking distance, as is the community kindy. North Albany Senior High School and TAFE are a bike-ride away. This property represents excellent value and promises an easy, rewarding lifestyle for buyers on a budget.
