Last Listing description (July 2017)

While stylish upgrades, open-plan living and a large courtyard make this 2-bedroom unit better than most and a worthy investment...rarely does it come with a location like this.
For anyone that loves weekends full of quick coffee stops, shopping sprees, fitness sessions and nights out on the town (clue: that's everyone), this is your kind of place.
Why? Because The Parade and plenty of parks sit right on your doorstep.

And, of course, what's great for you is great for your tenants; making it as much a sound financial investment as it is an investment in lifestyle.
On your return, enjoy the looks and livability of home headlined by easy-care timber look floors, loads of natural light and a functional kitchen with stainless steel appliances.
Thanks to that floor plan, the lounge and kitchen meets to conjure a free-flowing journey from front to back. Brilliant!
Weekends will wind down with ease thanks to generous master bedroom with built-in robes. Bedroom two is poised to become a dressing room or home office.
If you do need a car, the carport will oblige. If you want to bring friends back after a night out, that courtyard (and its pergola) will happily host them.
On the odd weeknight, just skip over to the heritage listed Kensington Hotel for a quiet counter meal. Quiet because it's otherwise hard to find...
Because this part of Kensington is a secret worth keeping.
More reasons why we love this home:
- Walking distance from Woolworths (Marryatville)
- Just metres from public transport to the CBD
- Close to a range of quality schools, including Mary MacKillop College, Marryatville High and Loreto College
- Walking distance from several ovals/parks
Stainless steel oven and dishwasher to kitchen
- Lock-up gated entry
- Efficient split heating and cooling
- Manicured gardens to yard
