Last Listing description (August 2023)

This beautifully presented home is being sold for the 1st time since new and has been vacated and staged to now be available to its new owner immediately. The single level floorplan makes it easily accessible for all family members and ensures there is no wasted space. Clever design features offer separated living spaces and the main bedroom segregated from the other 3 bedrooms to allow more privacy.

The luxurious kitchen offers all Bosch stainless steel appliances and 40mm thick granite bench tops plus a large walk in pantry and is positioned to overlook the open plan dining and family room which in turn opens out to the alfresco entertaining area so the family can have a closer interaction for mealtimes. Side access to the enclosed rear yard means guests could even join the weekend BBQ without going through the house for further convenience.

With a very high level of inclusions and no outstanding maintenance items, this 3 year old home is just turn key and ready for your enjoyment, this is the new lifestyle you deserve. Homes with these features in 'New Watson' are quite tightly held and with pre-auction offers welcomed, we suggest prioritising a viewing to avoid missing out.

It's the most informative property video you will watch during your property search, but don't just take our word for it
