Awash in sun and tucked safely off the road, this well-presented home is an affordable entry into a sought after and highly convenient Chartwell neighbourhood zoned for Hukanui Primary School. Built in 1979, and offering the benefits of DVS, a heat pump, and ceiling insulation, the home has a good degree of comfort and an abundance of natural light and warmth. It's been refreshed with new paintwork inside and out, and had the carpet replaced around five years ago. Everything about this three-bedroom home is bright and uplifting. Kitchen and dining are open plan flowing into a large, family-friendly lounge perfect for entertaining. Peel back the ranchslider and enjoy life outdoors on the full-length deck overlooking the fenced front yard. Kids have flat lawn area for yard games and room for play equipment. Sun is an important factor in a home, and it's in plentiful supply here thanks to a north-facing lounge, deck and bedrooms. Peace and privacy abound. A shared bathroom and separate laundry round off the efficient floor plan, and there's garaging at the end of the driveway. Positioned between Chartwell Mall and Queenwood's boutique village, the location is hugely appealing. Shops, cafes, medical, library, parks and river reserve are all in walking distance, and commuter routes are easy to access.
