Last Listing description (May 2023)

Warm and inviting is this superbly located north facing three-bedroom home that is currently available in the highly sought-after suburb of Watson.
Directly opposite open bushland space and adjacent to the Watson neighbourhood oval, Majura Primary school and only minutes to the very popular Watson shops, this rare opportunity is one not to be missed.
24 Simpson Street has had some changes made to it over the years and after the extension was completed, the property became a four-bedroom home. The fourth bedroom has since been transformed into an extra living zone but could easily be converted back into a bedroom if one so desired. This allows some flexibility to the next lucky owners to perhaps re-imagine the residence into something that works for them. It's so versatile and that's what makes this a very special home.

Boasting spacious sundrenched north facing living areas comprising of lounge, dining and family rooms, stunning Brushbox timber floors and timeless timber framed windows, it truly sets a warm and inviting tone throughout the entire residence.
All three bedrooms are generous in size, the main bedroom complete with ensuite and more importantly offers a parents retreat or perhaps as a home office with direct access to your own courtyard.
The kitchen is equipped with updated appliances and offers ample bench and cupboard space for any budding chef who likes to create their own cuisine masterpiece's.
The backyard is low maintenance and features a paved outdoor entertaining area and a single car accommodation.
With local schools and parks at your doorstep and not to mention the easy short commute to the city, this highly desirable property is well worth your time for an inspection and your consideration.
