Security, convenience and easy, comfortable living are high on the list of demands for people approaching their senior years, and this modern, three-bedroom unit near the centre of Albany promises all these in abundance.

At the front of a four-unit complex for over 55s, it is built of brick and tile with external feature wall panels and has easy-care gardens on two sides, an undercover carport and visitor parking space at the front.

The unit was designed for low maintenance and maximum livability, without sacrificing space.

An open living room combining the lounge and dining area features a gable ceiling and two sets of glass sliding doors, which create a light, open and airy space.

This area is air conditioned, and for cosy winters, there’s a gas bayonet fitting for a gas fire as well as a small hearth housing an electric log fire.

The kitchen is an appealing and practical workspace with attractive cabinets and tiling, and an electric cooktop and oven.

Off a hallway near the front door is a versatile room currently used as a library and office, which would also make an ideal guest bedroom for visiting grandchildren.

Two double bedrooms, both with built-in robes, are at the front of the house. Of these, the main bedroom has air conditioning and direct access to the semi-en suite bathroom.

Judicious design combining the laundry and bathroom into one ensures plenty of space for moving around – an important factor for people with mobility constraints. This sizeable room houses a bath, corner shower, toilet, laundry trough, and space for the washing machine and dryer. There’s a second separate toilet at the end of the hall.

Carpets in the lounge, office and bedrooms, stylish ceramic tiles in the hall and kitchen, vertical blinds and neutral decor finish off the home beautifully.

The outdoors is just as appealing.

A favourite spot for a cuppa – or a glass of beer or wine in summer – is sure to be the undercover patio at the front, overlooking a fenced area of garden with a lovely silver birch. There’s also a storage shed off the carport and another private area for hanging out washing.
This unit is fitted out for easy access, even for a person with a wheelchair. A ramp at the front and grab handles in the bathroom are important considerations for mobility and safety.

A short walk or gopher ride from Woolworths and the speciality shops in the Dog Rock Shopping Centre, and within easy reach of medical facilities, this lovely unit answers all the needs of over 55s without compromising on space or quality.

Couples or singles looking to downsize and put their feet up will appreciate the many virtues of this appealing home.
