Whether you're purchasing a property as a home or an investment, location should be at the top of your checklist.
This 2-bedroom brick veneer unit puts a big tick in that box. It combines the advantages of a quiet no-through road with the convenience of being walking distance from Strath Village and Kennington Village shopping centres, the La Trobe university campus and Kennington Reservoir.
Set well back from the road, in a generously spaced 5-unit development, it's easy to forget you're close to the epicentre of Strathdale where Marnie Road begins. The road ends at the Greater Bendigo National Park.
Strathdale is renowned for its leafiness and the unit complex is no exception. Large native trees can be viewed from any angle. You'll enjoy the bird chorus which greets you every morning.
Inside all the basics are solidly in place. Two bedrooms with built-ins, the master a generous size. Bathroom facilities include bath, shower, vanity, mirrored cabinet and separate toilet. There's also a linen press. The laundry is conveniently located at the back door for quick access to the clothesline. The spacious eat-in kitchen includes gas cooker, range hood, pantry and plenty of cupboards.
The lounge, hallway and bedrooms are carpeted. Floor tiles feature in the bathroom, toilet and laundry. The soft-under-foot lino in the kitchen will make meal preparation more comfortable.
Located at the front of the unit, the lounge features a large block of windows which invite light and views inside. Double roller blinds let you filter that sunlight on summer evenings.
Curl up in your favourite armchair and enjoy the comfort of the reverse-cycle split system. On extra-chilly days, the gas wall furnace will ramp up the coziness.
Low maintenance gardens at the front and rear of the unit provide personal green space. The attached single garage will be the ideal place to house your gardening tools.
Some may wish to 'freshen up' the unit but, as it is comfortably presented, you can easily move straight in and enjoy the lifestyle.
For first home buyers this unit represents a great opportunity to enter the market. Downsizers will appreciate the chance to release capital. And investors will recognise the magnetic appeal the location will have to potential renters.
