Step inside and you're greeted by a light and inviting interior, where fresh laminate floorboards, neutral walls, and simple modern touches are a canvas ready for everyday life. The home's thoughtful layout gives you multiple living zones to spread out and enjoy - whether you're gathering around the TV in the lounge room, sharing family meals in the dining area, or watching the kids run out to the backyard through the sliding glass doors.
The kitchen is practical and well-designed, with a standalone oven and cooktop, a stainless-steel sink, and plenty of storage and bench space to keep life flowing smoothly. Its open position keeps you connected to the dining and outdoor areas, making family dinners and weekend barbecues a breeze.
All four bedrooms are carpeted and cosy, with roller blinds for privacy and comfort. The master has convenient access to the main bathroom, which features a separate bath, framed shower, wall-hung vanity, and frosted window to let in natural light. There's also a separate powder room for added practicality, plus a good-sized laundry with its own external access.
Outside, the home continues to shine with a huge, level backyard with established lawns perfect for kids, pets, or future landscaping dreams. A covered alfresco area runs the width of the house, giving you a shady spot to entertain, while the secure double-length carport offers plenty of room for vehicles.
