When the time comes to move from the family nest to a more manageable home, the main considerations for most couples and singles are security, privacy and easy living.
You get all these in abundance at this appealing over-55s and/or retirees unit, just five minutes’ drive from town and even closer to a shopping centre, medical facilities and a fuel outlet.
It’s priced to have wide appeal with retirees, and the three bedrooms are sure to come in handy when family members come to stay.
The beautifully presented double brick and tile unit is tucked away within a gated complex and has a garage at the rear with a remote controlled automatic door for ease of entry. There is also gates to the yard for stowing the trailer or a second car.
It’s inside, though, that this place shines. It has recently been repainted all throughout and new floor coverings, including carpet in the bedrooms and wood look vinyl in the kitchen, dining and living area, have just been laid.
From the garage there is direct access to a built in storeroom under the main roof, ideal for hiding away the gardening equipment and golf clubs, and also to the laundry at the rear of the home. Beyond the laundry is access to the open plan living and dining area, which is a light and inviting space with a ceiling fan and reverse cycle air conditioning fitted for all year comfort. There is also a bayonet for gas heating if preferred. A sliding glass door to one side leads out to a brick paved courtyard with a garden bed on the outer perimeter screening the recently installed new Colorbond boundary fencing. Part of this outdoor space is undercover and has roll down blinds to shelter from any rain or breeze, making it a very versatile area that can be used throughout all seasons.
Back inside, the kitchen adjoins and overlooks the living and dining area, as well as the yard and outdoor entertaining area. Fitted with classic cream cabinetry the kitchen is a pleasant workspace and has a wall oven, four burner gas cook top with overhead exhaust, double sink and space for the fridge-freezer pigeon pair.
Around the corner is a hallway to the three bedrooms, two of which are doubles with mirrored built-in robes and the other a good-sized single. A reverse cycle air conditioner is fitted in the largest of the 3 bedrooms and two have ceiling fans.
There’s a bath as well as a walk-in shower in the bathroom, both with grab rails fitted for independent living, and everything is in great repair in this naturally well-lit space. The separate toilet is adjacent to the bathroom.
Storage is taken care of with a cupboard in the hallway and another in the laundry – in addition to the lockable outdoor storage room off the garage.
All tiling, carpets, vinyl flooring and décor are in great shape, security screens are fitted to all doors and windows, and the unit is ready to move in to and enjoy. Another big plus is that the exterior of the building is maintained by the strata company (body corporate) so you don’t have to worry about dealing with contractors over annoying repairs to the external surfaces, in most cases. The garden and hard surfaces immediately around the outside of the unit are part of what is included with the sale of the building but have been thoughtfully designed for easy maintenance.
With no neighbour on one side, this home unit is a peaceful retreat to come home to. It also sits opposite a lovely garden area, consisting mainly of established natives, that is maintained by the strata company. A small table and chairs are present so residents and visitors can sit and enjoy the birdlife and tranquil ambience when it suits.
The complex overall is nicely landscaped and well looked after, and this would be a place you’d be proud to call home.
