Privately positioned at the rear of a small Kensington Gardens group, this beautifully refurbished homette delivers something increasingly difficult to find: low-maintenance living with genuine space inside and out.
Set across approximately 311m², the home offers an unusually generous 92m² of internal living, complemented by an exceptional 195m² backyard. The result is a property that feels far removed from conventional unit living.
Polished timber floors bring warmth and character to the generous living and dining zones, while wide windows draw natural light throughout. Comfortable proportions give the home an immediate sense of openness, allowing it to live more like a compact house than a traditional unit.
And it's outside where the difference becomes even more apparent.
A substantial backyard provides genuine lawn, established greenery and valuable room for children and pets, weekend entertaining or simply enjoying your own private outdoor space a rare luxury in this style of property.
The updated kitchen is designed for effortless everyday living, with sweeping bench space, excellent cabinetry and modern appliances catering equally well to quick mid-week meals and relaxed weekend entertaining.
Both bedrooms are well proportioned and finished with plush carpet, with the main bedroom adding wide built-in robes. A crisp bathroom provides a separate bath, shower and WC, while a dedicated laundry with valuable storage adds further practicality.
Secure garaging behind a roller door is another standout, with the added convenience of direct internal access into the home. Daikin reverse-cycle air-conditioning provides year-round comfort, while rooftop solar panels and battery storage help reduce ongoing household electricity costs.
For downsizers who aren't ready to sacrifice space, first-home buyers looking beyond the standard unit offering, or purchasers who simply value having more land around them, this is a compelling combination beautifully updated interiors, impressive proportions, a genuine lawned backyard and secure direct-access garaging.
