This dwelling offers 3 Bedrooms, a full kitchen and living room with a flow to a spacious deck with a pergola. One bathroom, a seperate toilet, and its own septic tank is also thrown into the mix. Rain water and bore water is a bonus to this property.

A big shed on the property is another asset you can make use of. Currently part of it is cleverly utilised with an added bedroom, living room, a kitchenette and a bathroom. Although, this can be used as an office or hobby room. This setup presents various possibilities.

The property's location is particularly advantageous being close to Karaka shops and connection to the motorway heading North, West or South. Close to Karaka School, Hingaia peninsula school, Rosehill college and ACG Strathallan preschool, primary and high school.

So love this as is or make this 'Hidden Gem' even more loveable.

This piece of land allows natural light and a feel of your own paradise so lets meet here where you have multiple outdoor sitting areas, a swimming pool, abundant parking, storage space galore, tucked away from the main road, and a 4590 square metres more or less lot that provides ample space for gardening or children's play.

A Property file, LIM and Title are available to discuss the changes made to the property since it was built.

Contact us or come for a viewing if you are interested in a family home that offers '2 for 1', a swimming pool, and an extra-large shed for your imagination.
