Some apartments give you four walls and a front door, but this delightful ground floor darling throws in a whopping courtyard, your very own secret rear gate to lakeside bliss and a lifestyle so easy to enjoy that even your weekends will wonder what happened to the to do list. Nestled within the securely gated “Timbertops” complex, this comfortable refreshed retreat has a big heart and a layout to adore, from the inviting open plan living area and side study nook to a space savvy combined bathroom/laundry wet area that makes every inch of floor and wall space earn its keep. And with the leafy wonderland of Herdsman Lake and its picturesque reserve waiting just beyond the back fence, morning walks with the birds, golden hour bike rides and spontaneous playground adventures become beautiful everyday rituals — all without crossing a single major road or having to make a song and dance about getting there. The good life isn't always about having more — it's about having everything you love, right where you want it.

LOCATION
When an extension of your backyard is the magnificent Herdsman Lake and your neighbourhood comes with its own delicious collection of cafés, pubs and local favourites, staying home suddenly becomes a matter of choice rather than necessity. Let the morning birdsong set the pace for leisurely strolls through gorgeous lakeside parklands, swap the afternoon rush for evening laps around the lake or surrender to that spontaneous coffee catch up that somehow turns into lunch. The gourmet temptations of The Herdsman are harder to resist every time you visit, while the welcoming Herdsman Lake Tavern and a fabulous selection of nearby eateries and watering holes ensure there's always a good excuse to leave the cooking to somebody else. And when life calls for something beyond your leafy little bubble, convenient bus services, Glendalough Train Station and easy freeway access have you beautifully connected to Lake Monger, vibrant shopping precincts, excellent schools, the Perth CBD and our glorious Western Australian coastline.
