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!

Right from the get-go, you know this home is a winner. The two room powered and insulated cabin out front is not just a handy extra - it's a game changer. Art studio, music room, home office, teen retreat or guest space... ready and waiting to bring your ideas to life - you'll wonder how you lived without it! Step inside and the main home feels like a space that's meant to be lived in and loved. Beautiful polished timber floors sweep through the kitchen, dining and utility areas, adding warmth and texture, while fresh paintwork and carpet keep everything feeling fresh and move in ready. The kitchen enjoys a leafy, semi-rural outlook, drenched in morning light. A spacious separate lounge invites you to relax, with sliders opening to a sunny, north-facing terrace that feels like an extension of the living space. There are three double bedrooms, all with good wardrobe storage, plus a heat pump in the master. The bathroom is generous, with a shower, vanity and separate toilet alongside, plus the added bonus of a separate laundry by the back door. When the seasons shift, the freestanding wood burner becomes the heart of the home, adding both warmth and atmosphere, with the wetback helping keep things efficient along with insulation above and below. Outside, the 784m2 section gives you room to live a little. There are lawn areas for kids and pets, veggie boxes for those who like to grow their own and a tucked-away nook beneath the trees that feels like a secret retreat - perfect for a quiet read or a moment to reset. The carport, alongside the single garage, doubles as a great shaded hangout in the height of summer, and there's no shortage of extras - garden, tool and wood storage, even a former chicken coop. It's one of those homes that just works! Easy, flexible, a bit of fun, and full of potential to make it your own.
