In all seriousness, if I was a first home buyer, downsizing empty-nester, single parent or a whole lot of alternatives besides, I would be taking a very, very close look at this home. A 2-bed house often implies a compromise in size but this gorgeous character cottage on a flat 607sqm is anything but a compromise. Starting with a state-of-the-art designer kitchen that would be large even by 4-bed home standards, flowing to a massive covered entertainers deck, double garage downstairs and loads of lockable storage besides, beautiful polished timber floors and 2.7m ceilings throughout plus fully air conditioned is all just for starters! I could say that homes like this rarely come up but the truth is I have never seen a property quite like this in the 4069 postcode especially being within walking distance of public transport, shops, restaurants and Akuna parkland, so I'd call this a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity. If this in any way fits your brief, I certainly wouldn't delay coming to view or you'll be waiting until your next lifetime to find the same!
