Last Listing description (July 2024)

Beautifully presented and renovated, this almost indestructible townhouse represents one of the best buying opportunities in the 2281 postcode. Location just can't be beat with a short walk to Coles and all manner of shops and services including cafes, buses and the local library, with the Lake, Channel and great beaches just minutes away.

The fresh kitchen sets the tone for the home with fresh white cabinetry, deep pantry space, smartly placed cupboards for extra storage and plantation shutters adding an extra element of luxury to the home.

One of the best features of these townhouses is arguably the exposed brick work, which is not only aesthetically pleasing but it saves your walls from dirty little fingers, crayon art or the accidental bump of furniture along the wall.

The raked ceilings are a rarity and allows the natural light to stream through and create the warm feeling of home that everyone craves.

The open-plan living area seamlessly connects to the outdoors, offering the perfect blend of functionality & ease of living. North facing courtyard is the perfect place to sit in the winter sun or entertain by the summer breezes. Guests don't even have to travel upstairs to use the bathroom with powder room downstairs and accessible directly from the courtyard or internally through the garage.

Without a blade of grass, you can spend your time relaxing, spending time along the channel or nearby beaches. If it is an investment, you are after there will be no worry about how your tenants are keeping the lawns and gardens.

The bedrooms are set to the upper level of the home, with the owner making a smart move to enclose the open space of the second bedroom for extra room and safety of little ones jumping around.

The main bedroom is its own little haven with balcony coming straight off the bedroom and out into the beautiful sun to enjoy year-round reading, relaxing or basking with a tea, coffee or wine.

The third bedroom can double as an upstairs living area with balcony to the front of the home. Or be creative and enclose the garage downstairs into an additional bedroom or living space as many in the complex have done.

Set halfway down the complex, adding to the extra privacy and quiet, with visitor parking almost at your doorstep, convenience for you, your family and guests is paramount.

Whether you're starting out or slowing down, buying your 1st investment or a weekender, or you're trying to find somewhere affordable, this pocket rocket will blow your mind, with its hard to beat value, quality brick build and low maintenance up keep.

So you can make the move to superb seaside Swansea, surrounded by water with the lake, great beaches and extensive shops and services virtually on your doorstep, the location is beyond brilliant and strata fees are affordable, so seriously, what's not to love?
