Complete with quiet side street access, a tropical-themed alfresco courtyard and just a short stroll to the popular Thrift Park Shopping Centre, this fun three-bedroom villa offers comfort and convenience for first home buyers, investors or downsizers.

Within a boutique development of only four, this is a fabulous opportunity to finally break free of the rental trap with plenty of scope to value add down the track with a cheap and cheerful modern makeover.

Beyond a securely gated front garden with a tall fence for peace and privacy, the home features a tiled main living room plus bright kitchen/meals with gas cooking overlooking the paved barbecue courtyard with its swaying palm trees.

Upstairs, accommodation is by way of three comfortable bedrooms, all with built-in robes, nicely attended by the smart two-way bathroom, while a separate laundry at entry level is a real bonus here.

Within easy reach of Mentone Village, trains, schools and the beach, extras include cosy gas heating, reverse-cycle air-conditioning and a single lock-up garage with rear storeroom.
