Modern, bright and in great condition, this low-maintenance dwelling is a fantastic opportunity for busy retirees or downsizers alike, given its proximity to local shops, parks, schools and peaceful riverside walks.

With two bedrooms, one recently renovated bathroom, a separate laundry, undercover parking and a walled courtyard garden, this single-level home offers comfort, convenience and the ease of being able to simply lock and leave. Private and secure, come inside to find a main bedroom with built-in robes and new white timber window shutters, a double-sized second bedroom and a freshly updated bathroom with a frameless shower and contemporary vanity.

Upon entry, an impressive vaulted ceiling in the open-plan living and dining area ensures a real sense of flow and space, further enhanced by a clear outlook over the sunny courtyard and reticulated garden beds. Practical and neat with ample storage, the adjoining kitchen offers an electric oven, double sinks, pantry and a garden outlook, while additionally, a good-sized separate laundry with a separate WC and a storage room accessed from the kitchen add to this home's functional appeal.

Throughout the living and kitchen area, enjoy smart hard-wearing timber-look flooring, a wall-mounted air conditioner and new plantation shutters on the sliding glass doors to the garden. Outside, relax with your morning cup of coffee on the paved terrace surrounded by established garden beds and the ease of artificial lawn, while at the front entry, park in the undercover carport and walk right inside. Further bonuses include freshly painted skirtings, doors, frames, external timberwork and eave linings, alongside a full roof tile restoration.

Simply move in and enjoy the enviable location - a brief stroll to the local IGA and cafés, Manning Primary School, bus stops along nearby Paterson Street and the banks of the Swan as it meanders just south of Canning Bridge. Of course, the CBD is a short commute at an 11-minute drive, and Canning Bridge Train Station (and Freeway access) are just a four-minute drive. Bordered by river, surrounded by family-friendly swathes of greenery such as Lake Gillon Walk, and at just a five-minute-drive to Curtin University, there are a lot of reasons to act quickly on this villa.
