The Agent Loves
"The separation between the living and bedroom levels works so well when everyone's moving at a different pace. There's space to come together and room to do your own thing, all within a home that's straightforward to care for."

The Snapshot
The view from the sofa is a little greener at 10 Gerygone Street. Opening directly from the living room, the courtyard gives this contemporary home a welcome connection to the outdoors, with lawn, garden beds and a patio. There's space to grow herbs, enjoy the sunshine or simply leave the door open to an afternoon breeze.
The Home
There's room for dinner with friends, a sunny spot for your morning coffee and an upper level devoted to winding down. At 10 Gerygone Street, a thoughtfully arranged three-bedroom home brings these everyday pleasures together, with welcoming interiors and a garden that is easy to enjoy and maintain.
Contrasting brickwork and horizontal cladding give the two-storey façade a contemporary feel, softened by established planting along the frontage. A covered entry welcomes you inside, where a light neutral palette creates a cohesive backdrop from the kitchen through to the living spaces.
Timber-look flooring adds warmth to the open-plan lounge and dining area, while sheer curtains soften the natural light and a sliding glass door connects the lounge directly with the rear courtyard.
Positioned to keep conversation flowing, the kitchen looks across the dining area from its stone-topped breakfast bar. Pull up a stool for a quick bite or chat while dinner comes together on the four-burner gas cooktop. A built-in oven, rangehood and stainless steel dishwasher cover the essentials, complemented by a tall pantry, overhead and under-bench cabinetry, and dedicated fridge and microwave recesses. Tiled flooring and a tiled splashback complete the practical design.
Outside, the patio provides a lovely setting for coffee or a drink at the end of the day. A neatly defined lawn, established garden beds and stepping stones give the fenced courtyard greenery and character without creating an overwhelming weekend gardening list.
Carpet continues up the staircase and through the hallway to three bedrooms, creating a comfortable separation from the social spaces below. The generous master includes wardrobe storage and a private ensuite. The main bathroom combines a shower over the bath with a glass screen, vanity storage and crisp white tiling.
Everyday details are thoughtfully covered, including under-stair storage, a downstairs laundry with an additional powder room, and a double garage with internal access.
With generous bedrooms, connected living spaces, and a garden to make your own, this home offers an easy-care lifestyle in a warm, welcoming setting.
