Looks can be deceiving... this weatherboard beauty has had the full glow-up. Freshly renovated from top to bottom, it blends classic charm with all the modern touches you'll love. The striking new kitchen takes centre stage with its adjoining dining area, while the separate living room is the perfect spot to kick back after a long day. Fresh white interiors, plush new carpet and an updated bathroom mean the hard work has already been done-just move in, unpack and decide who's making the first cuppa. Life's practicalities are covered too, with a generous mudroom/laundry ready to catch the shoes, school bags and everything else that usually ends up on the floor. Two bedrooms are joined by a clever bonus room with built-in bunk, giving you the flexibility for kids, guests, hobbies, a home office or the world's coolest sleepover room. Outside, the fully fenced section is made for kids and pets to burn off some energy, while the huge garaging and ample off-street parking mean there's space for the cars, boat, trailer and all the toys-because let's be honest, you can never have too much garage space. Fresh, functional and full of personality, this is one that's ready to welcome its next chapter.
