This townhouse gets the practical side of things right - a handy address, a sunny aspect, and everyday living that doesn't ask much of you. St Kilda beach is close by too, an easy addition to the appeal.
A garden gives the place a warm face to the street, and the driveway runs down the side to a single garage. A door at the back of the garage opens onto a path along the rear of the section, leading through to the laundry - a short, direct route in from the car rather than a trip around to the front entrance.
Step inside and it's clear straight away: this house has been loved. It carries the kind of upkeep that only comes from someone who's genuinely cared about the place, year after year.
The kitchen is modern and the layout works well. The separate laundry is off to one side. Just in front of the kitchen, a dining area opens into the lounge through sliding doors - pull them back on a day when everyone's around and the two rooms become one, or slide them shut when you want the lounge to feel like its own quiet world.
Both bedrooms have built-in wardrobes. The primary is properly sized; the kind of room you can actually put furniture in without it feeling crowded. The bathroom is simple and functional, shower and vanity, with the toilet kept separate. Two hall cupboards handle the linen and odds and ends that never seem to have a home elsewhere.
The sun finds its way in easily here, helped along by a heat pump and a Moisturemaster system.
Picture a Sunday morning here, coffee in hand, in no rush to be anywhere but the beach if you feel like it. Come along to an open home and see it for yourself, or phone for a private viewing.
