30 Washington Lane, Woodend, Vic 3442

Constructed of low maintenance hardiplank, this cosy house is ideal for first home buyers or those prepared to invest a little time and energy.

Its classic L-shaped design incorporates three bedrooms, two with robes, and open plan living, kitchen and meals areas.

The compact kitchen has a gas cooker that was installed around a year ago, and a durable lino floor. The view from the window is of the pretty garden.

The adjacent living room has a ceiling fan, stained timber architraves and skirting boards. An archway in the wall of the living room leads to a step-down lounge or study, which has sliding doors leading onto the private verandah.

Convenient ducted central-heating is powered by mains gas.

Roses abound in the 795m2 garden. A garden arch supports an eye-catching pink variety, while bushes with blooms of other colours feature in a garden bed close to the house. Thick plantings screen the house from the road, and a red brick path leads to the front door.

A separate studio, ideal for home office use, has been plastered and has power connected.

Car accommodation is supplied by a two car carport. There are two garden sheds, one with power.

This house is less than two kilometres from the town centre, in a leafy and serene neighbourhood. If you are looking for an affordable start, a low maintenance weekender or an addition to an investment portfolio, this property is definitely worthy of note.
