What a great start

Families looking for comfortable bedrooms and living areas and a back garden to play in would be pleased with this spic and span refurbished weatherboard.

Painted in stylish slate grey with a white wooden fence, it conveys simplicity from the outset with its low-maintenance front lawn, roses and decked porch.

The house has been recently repainted. Inside, decorative cornices, plantation shutters and downlights elevate the decor, while dark carpets and polished floorboards are practical for families with young children or pets.

Two bedrooms at the front of the house have built-in wardrobes. A third smaller room is perfect for a child’s room or perhaps a study.

A re-tiled bathroom is a feature. There’s a corner spa with raised tiled splashback, corner shower, toilet, vanity and heat lamp.

For added convenience there is a second toilet adjoining the laundry off the hallway.

The light-filled, open-plan kitchen has stone benchtops and splashbacks, which run either side of the Smeg dishwasher and sink area. There is a stainless steel oven and cooktop, and soft-closing doors.

Adjoining the kitchen is space for a dining setting with well-positioned skylight.

You’ll be stepping down to the large lounge which takes up the back of the house. It has a split-system and can also accommodate a study nook.

There’s a seamless transition via bi-fold doors to the expansive entertainment deck area.

It overlooks the north-facing backyard which has lawn, clothes line and established garden.

The garage has room for two cars, and there are four extra off-street spaces.

Children and pets will enjoy the proximity of Cruikshank Park and McIver Reserve at either end of the street.

A bonus is that the property is less than a five-minute walk to Wembley Primary School and shops.
