The mature garden here is the crowning glory of this approximately 25 year old, solidly constructed steel frame home set back on an almost level 1,000 square metre red soil block. This approx. 18 square home comes complete with full wall & ceiling insulation plus reverse cycle air conditioning. There’s a separate kids’ rumpus / office with its own bathroom and hot water system in what was once the double garage in the rear garden and a bountiful vegetable patch for folk who like fresh picked food. It would probably not be too difficult to reconvert the studio back to a double garage if desired.

The air conditioned home is spacious & filled with natural light, thanks to lots of glass. It features a large open living room looking out into the ever beautiful & private front garden, separate dining room & a breakfast nook area for family meals. There is tons of space in the big galley style kitchen with plenty of storage and a dishwasher included. All 3 bedrooms (2 with built-in robes) are large and enjoy garden vistas. The white bathroom with tub & separate shower is nicely tiled and matched by a separate toilet. While the interior decor is a bit dated & the kitchen is probably reaching an age when you might think of replacing it, everything is in good order.

Outdoor living here is very pleasant indeed with paved areas at both the front & rear of the home plus a little garden gazebo for BBQs. Which ever spot you choose to relax on, the outlook into the gardens adds a most pleasant dimension to your relaxation. And, Yes! These gardens really are special! Lawns, shrubs, trees & palms all combine to give excellent privacy coupled with visual beauty. There is always patches of dense shade & patches of sunshine here as well as areas of filtered sunlight to invite you outdoors throughout the changing seasons. Flowers & shrubs add colour as the seasons pass. Just a bit of mowing and weeding is all this garden needs.

This is the sort of home you could buy right now and put on the rental market without doing anything to it. It should have no trouble finding tenants in the $340 - $350 per week range as it is ideal for families and not far from schools. On the other hand, move-in buyers will probably start with a few cans of paint to redecorate according to their own tastes and do some further updating later on when they feel ready to do so. Families can use the money saved by growing their own fresh garden produce here to put towards the refurbishment fund.
