By Carole Levy

This well-maintained house on about 400 square metres is in a popular location – within a five-minute walk of Featherbrook P-9 College and 10 minutes of Featherbrook Shopping Centre. There are three more schools within less than a kilometre.

With 2.7-metre ceilings giving a sense of space, it has neutral wall paint and grey carpet and floor tiles and vertical blinds on all windows. Everything is as neat as a pin.

Entry is to a carpeted hallway that heads down to the living hub at the back. On the way, the hall passes three carpeted and fitted bedrooms and a good-sized linen closet. The main bedroom, first cab off the rank in the entry hall, has a walk-in robe and en suite. The fourth bedroom is along a second hallway it shares with the laundry (with closet), smart main bathroom and separate toilet.

The living area, with meals zone tiled and sitting zone carpeted, incorporates a well-designed kitchen. It has plenty of cupboards in light-toned timber-look cabinetry, an island bench topped with white laminate, a tiled splashback and underbench oven, gas cooktop and dishwasher.

A split-system provides indoor climate control.

The good-sized backyard mirrors the look of the front garden, with different shades of mulch and plantings that are just beginning to grow. A concrete patio outside the living area is the spot to put up a pergola in future.

The property, with a remote-controlled double garage with drive-through access for boat or trailer, is sure to attract first-home buyers and investors looking for an area likely to achieve good future dividends.
