3/25 Ebony Parade, Heidelberg West, Vic 3081

Set at the rear on a block of only three, this light-filled north-facing unit allows you to take your first steps on the property ladder or invest with confidence.

Size, space and loads of natural light are assets of the welcoming open-plan living area on entry, which features a modern kitchen with stainless steel appliances and direct access to the low maintenance courtyard with a neat lawn area for the kids or family pet.

All three bedrooms are of good proportions and fitted with built-in robes, while a bright two-way family bathroom, split-system heating/cooling, ducted heating, solar panels, separate laundry and a single garage will also appeal to downsizing buyers.

Fitness enthusiasts will value having the Darebin Creek Trail within walking distance, while Northland Shopping Centre, Heidelberg and Ivanhoe train stations, bus services, the Heidelberg medical precinct, schools and La Trobe University are minutes away.
