Last Listing description (February 2019)

Enjoying prime position at the head of a quiet cul-de-sac is a 1960s 3-bedroom homerebooted for the future to make it the perfect downsizer with the birdlife and native gardens to set it apart in sought-after Melrose Park.

Thank the current owners for its impressive transformation, which included an extension to accommodate the starring and rather large open-plan kitchen at the home's heart.

A mix of Jarrah and Baltic pine floors remain to create contrast between original charm and a long list of upgrades including the double glazed windows of a lounge room looking out to the drinking Lorikeets of the landscaped front yard.

With low-profile stone tops in two subtly opposing colours, shimmering glass splashbacks, durable two-pack cabinetry, huge breakfast bar/island and a 900mm freestanding oven/gas cooktop

The kitchen is hands down the greatest upgrade of all; and leads to an alfresco patio and Japanese-inspired garden with stone pathways, small plantings and a certain 'zen' we've hardly seen before; another haven for those colourful and inquisitive birds.

Speaking of havens, the spacious master bedroom with built-in robes for a clutter free life is no exception.

Just moments from coffee haunts, like the Little Fig, and public transport to Castle Plaza, Mitcham, Glenelg and Marion; everything you need and more comes with Melrose Park.

More reasons why we love this home:

- Lock up garage/carport with remote roller door entry
- Reduce those crippling energy bills with a 3KW solar system
- Stay comfy all year round with zoned ducted reverse cycle heating and cooling
- Newly refurbished second bathroom/laundry with shower and full-height tiling
- Study nook and casual meals zone to open-plan living
- LED down lighting to living areas
- Dishwasher and electric cupboards to kitchen
- Storage galore - including multiple lines presses
- Solar hot water
- And many more
