53 Retreat Road, Flora Hill, Vic 3550

SOME properties have a vibe that can't be quantified in floor space, appliances, or decor. They just welcome you and make you feel at home.This surprise packet weatherboard, on a convenient corner allotment in Flora Hill is such a property.

The location is hard to beat, with a kid's playground a few doors away, safe access to the Spring Gully walking trail, the renowned hot bake and butchers just a short stroll along Retreat Road, and the university close by.

This beautifully presented home has had all the hard work done with replumbing, rewiring & restumping works, but it's the bright contemporary kitchen renovation located in the hub of the home that makes the flexible floor plan work as it sits between the main lounge and a second living space that delivers a study nook and second area for the kids toys or a TV & couch.
Floating timber floors add to the contemporary feel, while ducted floor heating and split-system air-conditioning keep the whole house comfortable year round.
All three bedrooms have built-in wardrobes and ceiling fans, and share a spacious four-piece family bathroom.
The newly renovated laundry includes an extra toilet, and excellent storage with bench space.
Glass doors lead from the living area to a covered timber deck, perfect for alfresco dining. It overlooks a courtyard-style back garden with a weatherboard shed and an adjacent covered area providing even more space for outdoor entertaining.
There are two off-street parking spaces with safe access from College Crescent, and a timber garage/storage area with a roller door for easy access.
It's hard to imagine a more lovely first home or a more attractive investment opportunity - especially in a location so close to town.
An inspection can't fail to impress.
