Three bedrooms. Twenty solar panels. A powered studio out back. And a price point that makes first home buyers and investors sit up.

This light-filled, low-maintenance, single-storey brick veneer home sits on a generous 617sqm (approx.) in a quiet court, with two separate living areas. A formal lounge is perfect as a retreat, study or more formal dining space.

The open kitchen, dining and meals area flows to a second family room. The kitchen features Caesarstone benchtops, a Bosch wall oven, a 4-burner electric cooktop, a dishwasher, a plumbed fridge space and plenty of storage.

The master bedroom sits at the front of the home for privacy. Two further bedrooms share their own hallway and access to the shared family bathroom with soaker tub and shower. All bedrooms have built-in robes, and overhead fans keep them comfortable in summer.

Outside is where this property stands out. The long driveway is secured by gates and a high fence. A separate garage at the rear has a wood log heater, and a work shed sits directly behind it. The powered studio/granny flat in the backyard suits a work-from-home office, teenage retreat, guest accommodation or hobby space (STCA). There's also a vegetable garden patch, and an undercover alfresco area for entertaining or home basketball games.

Comfort and running costs are covered with two split systems, an electric heat pump hot water system, hybrid waterproof flooring, a laundry with storage and 20 solar panels to help keep power bills down.

With low-maintenance living and extra space to add value, this home suits first home buyers, families and investors alike.

St Anthony's Primary School is right around the corner, and Lara Lake Primary and Lara Secondary College are an easy drive away. Lara train station, Lara Village Shopping Centre, Avalon Airport and the Princes Freeway to Geelong and Melbourne are only minutes away. Geelong's centre is less than 20 minutes by car.
