LOVE THE RETIREMENT LIFESTYLE

When you're winding down and in the market for a smaller property, your priorities are typically security, comfort and your own space.<br/>You get all of these at this lovely villa, as well as manageability, convenience and the many benefits of living in a neatly maintained complex among similar owners.<br/>The double brick and tile over-55s/retiree's home has everything most couples or singles expect when downsizing, including an open living space, spare bedrooms for visiting family members and a secure, enclosed carport with an automatic roller door.<br/>This property is considered the best in the whole complex because of its quiet end position, so only having a neighbour on one side, plus it has the largest land area attached to it out of all the units in the entire scheme. The yard is currently a mix of lawn and established flowing plants at the front, side and rear, but there is plenty of scope to make changes to suit your lifestyle. While it is perfect for those who are still active and love to spend their time tending to home grown herbs, fruits, vegetables and other plants, for those at the other end of the spectrum the gardens and lawn areas can be minimised and more paving introduced for a lock-up-and-leave style property.<br/>Inside, the villa is bright and inviting, with glass doors from the lounge and adjoining dining space leading out to the spacious private yard and a sheltered area for relaxing over morning or afternoon tea or even a beer before dinner. Here you'll find easy access to a brick storeroom under the main roof, ideal for storing all your gardening tools or other hobby equipment.<br/>This area could also double as a spare parking space, as it has access via double gates from the main driveway.<br/>Light cream coloured cabinetry features in the kitchen, which has a wall oven, gas cook top as well as a breakfast bar and built in pantry.<br/>The main bedroom is a good-sized double with a built-in robe, the second bedroom is also a double with a robe, and the third is a single. <br/>A bath, walk-in shower and vanity are in the bathroom, the toilet is separate and the laundry is near the back door.<br/>Security screens are fitted to all doors and sliding windows and a porch shelters the front entrance accessible from Pioneer Road.<br/>The blinds and décor are all in great condition, although new floor coverings will need to be fitted in the living area, hall and bedrooms as the originals have been removed. The carpet pieces that are loosely laid on the floor surfaces show how nicely the villa would look with similar coloured carpet being installed but it's currently a clean slate for those who would prefer easy care alternatives such as vinyl or tiles.<br/>Another beaut feature of this property is that everything is close at hand. A shopping centre with a supermarket, newsagent and liquor store is just up the road, the centre of town is a five-minute drive away and a bus stop is meters away.<br/>To top it off, the place is unoccupied and ready for new owners to put their stamp on it.<br/>To arrange a private inspection of this very appealing property, or request further information, please contact Lee Stonell on 0409 684 653 or [email protected]<br/><br/>What you need to know:<br/>- Double brick and tile over-55s/retiree's unit<br/>- Secure, gated complex<br/>- Open plan lounge and dining room<br/>- Light coloured kitchen with gas cooktop, wall oven, breakfast bar, pantry<br/>- Large courtyard plus established garden and undercover seating area<br/>- Loads of space for lawn, garden beds and/or paved areas<br/>- Double main bedroom with built-in robe<br/>- Second double bedroom with robe plus single third bedroom<br/>- Bathroom with bath, shower, vanity<br/>- Separate toilet<br/>- Laundry<br/>- Brick storeroom under the main roof<br/>- Security grills over all sliding windows<br/>- Enclosed carport with remote controlled roller door<br/>- Gates to back yard for extra vehicle<br/>- Convenient location near shopping centre<br/>- Five minutes to town<br/>- Lot size is 304 sqm<br/>- Council rates $1,989.67 pa<br/>- Water rates $1,463.12 pa<br/>- Strata levies $1,711.88 pa (includes building insurance)
