With rising interest rates comes rising rents....so here is a great home to end your renting cycle and one that you can truly call your own! You could move straight in and add your own personal touches in time, but the big ticket items such as kitchen and bathroom have already been renovated in the past, for easy living. You also have the advantage of being able to convert the existing study/dining space back into a third bedroom, as it once was, should you need room for young children or guests down the track. In the meantime, this opens off the lounge to be the perfect study alcove, formal dining or gaming room! And the views...are just amazing! Everyone wants a water and mountain view, but these are usually afforded at a much higher price point, but not here! Wake up to enjoy the 180 degree glistening water views and ever-changing skies framed by Mt Wellington (kunyanyi), in the distance, as you prepare breakfast in the kitchen before moving out onto the deck to take in the fresh, morning air. And in the evening, you will be treated to a kaleidoscope of colours as the sun sets behind the mountain! Flooded in natural light throughout, the interior will really surprise you once you step inside. There really is nothing that needs doing inside to make this your new home. Polished Myrtle floorboards in the lounge merge with Tas Oak floorboards in the study and hallway providing a practical, easy to clean finish to these high traffic areas. Double sliding doors open out onto a usable deck, ideal for barbeques and relaxing, and designed to make the most of the water views! You could easily put in stairs leading down into the backyard from this deck or extend this to maximise the outdoor living/entertaining space before the summer months and for easy flow to and from the backyard if you have children or a family dog. Outside is virtually a blank canvas with established shrubs and lawn, perfect for you to make the gently sloping, enclosed backyard as high or low maintenance as you wish…how exciting! This well presented property being a 20 minute commute from the city would make an ideal first home or a great investment opportunity down the track. Such a great opportunity to step into buying your own home.
