Be greeted by a beautiful and modern facade, complemented by the convenience of off-street garage parking. The garage also includes a laundry area with a combined washer/dryer.

Step inside to discover a contemporary space. The first bedroom, located off the hallway, features a comfy queen-sized bed and an ensuite equipped with a convenient shower. Further along the hallway, you'll find the main bathroom and a separate toilet for added privacy.

The hallway opens up to a gorgeous, light-filled kitchen-dining-living space. The kitchen is well-appointed with essentials, cookware, crockery, and modern appliances. Ample bench space is available for you to whip up your tasty home-cooked meals.

The dining space houses a delightful 6-seater dining area where you can enjoy your creations or catch up with loved ones.

The living room provides a cosy space to relax, complete with a smart TV for catching up on your favorite shows or snuggling in for a movie night. An adjoining patio, seamlessly accessed via a sliding door, offers a spot to bask in the sun during the day and enjoy clear, starry skies at night.

Branching off the living-dining area are the two additional bedrooms. One bedroom features a double bed, while the other accommodates two separate single beds.
