Walking distance from Epworth Hospital and Deakin University's Waurn Ponds campus, this thoughtfully designed residence delivers something increasingly rare: genuine lifestyle appeal with built-in income potential.
The Home
Three bedrooms (or four, if you convert the second living area), two bathrooms, and two distinct living zones give you room to spread out or pull in as life requires. The open-plan kitchen, living and dining area spills onto a courtyard sized for Sunday barbecues, not Saturday yard work. A second, quieter living space offers retreat when you need it.
North-western light fills both living areas. The main bedroom includes a walk-in robe and ensuite; the remaining bedrooms feature built-in robes. The double garage offers internal access — or, if you'd rather, a ready-made home office or rumpus room.
Features
* 3 beds + 2 living zones (4th bedroom option)
* 2 bathrooms including ensuite
* Double garage with internal access
* Ducted heating, split-system heating/ cooling, ceiling fans

The Location

The Opportunity
For first home buyers, retirees and downsizers: proximity to world-class healthcare, family at university, or anyone who needs you nearby — without the burden of a big block to maintain.
For investors: Deakin Waurn Ponds draws approximately 8,000 students annually, including around 4,000 international students seeking quality off-campus housing. Demand here isn't speculative — it's structural.
For both: a suburb with enduring appeal, strong amenities, and the kind of fundamentals that hold value.
A home that works as well as you have. Now it's your turn to take it easy!
