22 Birchwood Avenue, Templestowe Lower, Vic 3107

Practical for the downsizer, perfect for the first-time buyer with a love of entertaining and desirable for the investor with its prime positioning, there's not a single box this home doesn't tick in your checklist for the ideal home.

Love to entertain? A stunning decked alfresco that wraps itself around the side and rear of the home is your stage to put on a show any time of year. With an outdoor TV connection point and a bar on hand, you can invite your mates over to watch a game or two, then sizzle some sausages on the BBQ and watch the kids from the deck as they play freely on the flat lawn or in the elevated sand pits.

For the young family with children, forget loading the car for the morning school run, as you only have to walk them across the road to Templestowe Valley Primary School. You can also forget about commuting into the CBD by car as the close proximity of the Park + Ride facility allows you to enjoy a stress-free ride into town every day.

A heap of storage in and around the home will be of particular interest to the downsizer, so too will the property's low maintenance aspect and single-level layout that's dressed with soft carpets underfoot and defined by its successful zoning of the generous-sized bedrooms, radiant L-shaped lounge and dining nestled beneath a pitched ceiling and galley kitchen with quality stainless steel appliances, including Fisher & Paykel dishwashing drawers.

Modern comfort is achieved by the presence of split-system heating and cooling and gas ducted heating, while a crisp white colour scheme, abundant natural light and a rendered exterior paints the home in a contemporary tone.

Furthermore, the home benefits from fantastic access to Finns Reserve, trendy Templestowe Village, Macedon Square shops, Bulleen Plaza and Westfield Shoppingtown.
