GREAT FIND IN THE HEART OF WODEN
AN INVESTOR S DREAM PROPERTY IS HARD TO DEFINE BUT IF I HAD TO TRY, THIS FREESTANDING, 3 BEDROOM ENSUITE TOWNHOUSE IN MANSFIELD GARDENS WOULD FIT THE DEFINITION I HAVE IN MIND. IT HAS EVERYTHING THAT OUGHT TO BE IMPORTANT TO AN INVESTOR OR OWNER OCCUPIER LOOKING FOR A TOWNHOUSE THAT IS JUST RIGHT . FEATURES SUCH AS LOW MAINTENANCE, EXCELLENT LOCATION, RENOVATED KITCHEN, GOOD GARAGING, DUCTED HEATING AND COOLING, COURTYARD GARDENS, 2 BATHROOMS, 3 GOOD SIZED BEDROOMS AND TERRIFIC PRIVACY ALL COME TOGETHER TO MAKE THIS THE IDEAL PROPERTY. LOCATION IN A MAGNIFICENT CENTRAL WODEN LOCATION, MANSFIELD GARDENS IS VIRTUALLY AROUND THE CORNER FROM THE CANBERRA HOSPITAL, THE WODEN TOWN CENTRE, SOUTHLANDS SHOPPING CENTRE AND THE SWINGER HILL SHOPS. IF YOU LOOK AT THE PROPERTY FROM GOOGLE EARTH, YOU WILL SEE JUST HOW MANY POINTS OF INTEREST THERE ARE IN THE IMMEDIATE SURROUNDS. FROM MY EXPERIENCE IN THE AREA, TOWNHOUSES IN MANSFIELD PLACE AND NEIGHBOURING SWINGER HILL HAVE NOT HAD TO WAIT LONG FOR RESIDENTS WHETHER THEY ARE OWNER OCCUPIERS OR QUALITY TENANTS. TOWNHOUSE COMPLEX THERE ARE ONLY 13 TOWNHOUSES IN THIS PEACEFUL COMPLEX AND THEY DO NOT COME ONTO THE MARKET VERY OFTEN; GIVEN THEIR DESIGN AND LOCATION THAT IS NOT SURPRISING. HOUSE FEATURES THIS TOWNHOUSE IS VERY DIFFERENT TO THE REST IN THE COMPLEX. IT IS THE ONLY FREESTANDING TOWNHOUSE AND IS THE ONLY ONE WITH A DOUBLE GARAGE. ITS LONG LIST OF DESIRABLE FEATURES INCLUDE:- * FREESTANDING, SINGLE LEVEL TOWNHOUSE * ENTRY TO THE PROPERTY IS THROUGH AN ATTRACTIVE GATE INTO A WALLED COURTYARD WITH A NEW PERGOLA ROOF - THIS IS AN EXCELLENT OUTDOOR LIVING AREA * 3 LARGE BEDROOMS ALL WITH BUILT-IN ROBES (4 X DOOR ROBE IN BEDROOM 1) BEDROOMS 1 AND 2 HAVE FULL HEIGHT WINDOWS THAT LOOK OUT TO THE FRONT COURTYARD * ENSUITE WITH MODERN VANITY, TOILET, SHOWER RECESS AND LIGHT/HEAT/EXHAUST FAN COMBINATION * FULLY RENOVATED LIGHT AND BRIGHT KITCHEN WITH STONE BENCHTOPS, 2-DOOR PANTRY, DEDICATED WINE STORAGE SHELVES, DISHWASHER, ELECTRIC HOTPLATES AND UNDER BENCH OVEN. * OPEN PLAN LIVING AREA ENCOMPASSING THE LOUNGE, DINING AND FAMILY ROOM THIS ENTIRE AREA HAS 3 X BANKS OF FULL-HEIGHT DOUBLE WINDOWS OVERLOOKING THE PRETTY FRONT COURTYARD.

GARDEN FEATURES THE OUTDOOR AREA IS FABULOUS AND THERE IS NOT ONE BLADE OF GRASS TO MOW. HOWEVER, YOU DO NOT MISS OUT ON THE BEAUTY OF A GARDEN AS THE FRONT COURTYARD HAS BEEN HEAVILY PLANTED WITH SHRUBS AND RIGHT NOW THE CAMELLIAS ARE PUTTING ON A DELIGHTFUL DISPLAY. THE AREA IS PAVED AND IS SURROUNDED BY A HIGH BRICK WALL ON ONE SIDE AND BY THE HOUSE ON THE OTHER. IT IS A VERY PRIVATE AND LOW MAINTENANCE OUTDOOR AREA. THERE IS ALSO A COVERED PERGOLA RUNNING THE FULL LENGTH OF THE COURTYARD AND THIS PROVIDES PROTECTION FROM THE SUN AND RAIN MAKING IT A GREAT ALL-WEATHER ENTERTAINER. ACCESS TO THE FRONT COURTYARD IS VIA 5 STEPS FROM THE GARAGE LEVEL BUT ONCE THERE, THE COURTYARD AND HOUSE ARE BOTH ON A SINGLE LEVEL. AT THE REAR (ON THE SIDE CLOSEST TO MANSFIELD PLACE), THERE IS A SMALL SERVICE COURTYARD THAT IS ALSO ENCLOSED BY A HIGH BRICK WALL. A GATE LEADING FROM THE COURTYARD TO THE FRONT OF THE PROPERTY ENABLES YOU TO TAKE YOUR BINS TO THE ADJOINING NATURE STRIP ON BIN DAYS. GARAGE FEATURES DOUBLE DETACHED GARAGE WITH TWO ROLLER DOORS AND PLENTY OF ROOM OUTSIDE THE GARAGE FOR TURNING PURPOSES.
