Young couple’s dream: 11/97 Barry Street, Romsey 3434

By Carole Levy

Right in the thick of things, within a stroll of good coffee at the bakery, a doctor’s surgery and shops, this unit built by Sunbury’s Craftsmen Homes is a cracker for young couple or downsizer. Its front garden suggests high maintenance standards and this is proven true all through.

It has a charming carpeted lounge room, with a green accent wall providing a bold splash against the otherwise white wall paint. It also has a trio of stacked horizontal windows, dressed in grey roller blinds – as are most windows – which is flanked each side by built-in bookshelves.

Adjoining a tiled meals zone with another green accent wall, the kitchen has a stack of cupboards in pearl-grey laminate, grey splashback tiles and stainless-steel dishwasher, underbench oven, and gas cooktop beneath a canopy rangehood.

The two large carpeted bedrooms include the main which has a generous built-in robe, and an ensuite – matching the main for sparkle – with a vanity unit with good bench space and storage. The second bedroom also has a built-in robe, and the main bathroom has a separate shower and tub. Both bathrooms have huge mirrors with metallic frames.

A spacious undercover alfresco area looks out to yards with established gardens running along Colorbond fencing, as well as a good swathe of lawn. The shade borrowed from a neighbour’s tree will be great come summertime. This appealing property has an integrated garage, and the block is nearly 300 square metres.
