Why we LOVE 3 Short Street…
- The idyllic location – A life of activity & fun will be easy in this leafy walkable neighbourhood. Enjoy a walk or cycle before or after work along the scenic Gooseponds nature trail, perhaps stopping to try out its free exercise machines along the way. Walk the kids to school. Cycle, walk or jog to the local swimming pool for a few laps or simply to cool off. Leave the car at home and meet up with friends for a meal or a drink at the local Goosies Bowls Club. The lifestyle possibilities are endless

- The versatility – Offering extra usable space downstairs, complete with an existing shower & toilet, laundry area, kitchenette plus separate spaces that could be used for whatever purpose you choose – home office, teenage retreat, rumpus/games room, guest room, you name it! Upstairs, you’ll find the home’s 3 bedrooms – a king-sized master bedroom with ample space to add built-in robes & 2 standard-sized minor bedrooms, one with floor-to-ceiling, wall-to-wall built-in cupboards. The main bathroom with separate toilet is in neat & tidy original condition & offers a shower/bath combo

- The relaxed, welcoming ambience & floor plan – Entering this home is like being embraced in a warm hug. It might be older, but it just feels like home. The upper main living zone is bathed in natural light & cooling breezes. The modern kitchen is well equipped with electric cooking appliances, dishwasher & pantry. A servery connects it to the open plan dining/living area. New wide opening sliding doors with Crimsafe-style screens to maximise those wonderful breezes connect the living area to the front deck, a lovely space to enjoy a quiet cuppa or refreshing drink

- Ample off-street parking & space for the tinny – Those with a growing family or older kids at home will be familiar with the dreaded car shuffle & fight for parking space.

The shed will comfortably house all your tools, gardening equipment, bikes, fishing gear & boards etc. & would also make a great hobby/work shed. The handy 2-street access from the front & rear of the property will make bringing the boat home after a day on the water a breeze

- The potential for further upgrades – The potential to upgrade this property & increase its value is significant – install a new shed, an alfresco entertainment area, further modernise the interior, refresh the façade, the list goes on.
