Lush, secure gardens and leafy outlooks encase this superb, 3-bedroom brick residence, presenting updated family proportions in an esteemed locale, steps from Mahogany Rise Primary School and a short walk to the Pines Aquatic Centre. On a substantial corner allotment of 579sqm (approx.), a free-flowing floor plan currently offers cleverly zoned family accommodation, including an expansive living room with polished timber floors inviting ample north-east light through the casual dining space. A gorgeous stone-topped kitchen has been renovated for contemporary ease, comprising stainless steel appliances (including dishwasher) and an abundance of soft-close drawers and gloss-white cabinets. Peacefully positioned at the rear of the home, the three generous bedrooms (two with built-in robes) are accompanied by a sleek family bathroom with shower over bath, a separate toilet and large laundry offering exterior access. Entertain on the covered decked alfresco and paved backyard with low-maintenance bamboo borders while the kids run freely in the secure front lawned garden. Additional amenities include CCTV, ducted heating, split system air-conditioning, and a single carport with gated access.
