Downstairs, the kitchen, dining and lounge come together in a bright open-plan space. The contemporary kitchen features a generous island with breakfast-bar seating, pendant lighting, ample cabinetry and black tapware and handles. Timber-look flooring runs through the kitchen and dining area, while carpet makes the lounge a comfortable place to settle in. Large sliding doors open to the patio and garden, and a heat pump keeps the living area comfortable year-round. A separate laundry, guest WC and internal-access garage add everyday convenience.

Upstairs, the master bedroom enjoys a leafy outlook, built-in wardrobes and its own ensuite. The second bedroom is light and well sized, while the third offers flexibility as a bedroom, guest room or home office. The main bathroom has both a bath and a separate shower.

Outside, the patio is ready for a morning coffee or an easy meal outdoors, with lawn for children to enjoy. Hedging and fencing frame the garden, and a shed provides handy storage. The garage and an additional driveway space take care of parking.

Marsden Valley’s local café and Sprig + Fern are close by, along with a dog park and walking tracks, including Barnicoat Walkway. It’s a setting that makes it easy to get outdoors and enjoy the neighbourhood.
