At some point, priorities shift. It becomes less about having more - and more about having less. Less upkeep, and more time for the good stuff - family, friends, and fun! Set within the highly desirable Henry Russell Estate, this home is all about easy living. With a low-maintenance exterior crafted from durable materials and grounds designed to minimise effort and maximise leisure time, you can lock up and leave without a second thought. Bathed in natural light, the open-plan living area is the heart of the home, flowing seamlessly through a sliding door to a private, north-facing courtyard. Beautifully screened and framed by pretty gardens, it's a sun-soaked space to relax or entertain. There are three double bedrooms, with the master enjoying direct access to the main bathroom, plus the added convenience of a second toilet. Out the back, a well-organised utility area includes a garden shed, raised vege boxes, and unique viewing windows in the fence - perfect for enjoying the rural outlook to the rear. Living here also means peace of mind. The gated community offers security, while the body corporate takes care of the lawns (and more), freeing up your time. And with such a handy location, you're never far from anything. Leave the car in the single integral garage and take a flat stroll to nearby shops, bowling or bridge clubs, or hop on your e-bike and explore the network of limestone trails. Whether you're downsizing, investing in a low maintenance rental, or stepping onto the property ladder, this is a home that makes life easy!
