Ticking the boxes that matter most for first-home buyers, 19 Santa Rosa Drive is an easy place to start. Freehold, permanent material, set in an established Halswell location, and with some of the harder work having already been done.

Generous proportions define the home, with open-plan kitchen, dining and living flowing through to an oversized second lounge that gives everyone room to spread out or come together. A west-facing conservatory adds yet another living option, soaking up afternoon sun and offering a relaxed space year-round.

All three bedrooms are well sized and include built-in wardrobes, sharing a refreshed bathroom with separate shower and bath. Mostly double glazed and full of potential, a cosmetic refresh would go a long way in adding value to what is already a comfortable, well-laid-out home.
