Watch the world go by and appreciate the outlook from this fabulous 200sq m brick home in sought after Knightsbridge. Light, warm living spaces paired with a pleasant open view to the reserve and walkway, this home is well positioned for outlook, sun and easy living. Double glazing, a rarity in Knightsbridge, and ducted heating and cooling will ensure year-round comfort.

Those wishing to downsize without sacrificing well-proportioned rooms will be pleasantly surprised. The bright spacious open-plan lounge / dining area will allow for easy placement of furniture; this large space has a beautiful picture window facing the reserve from one aspect, your back garden and Sugarloaf from the other. A further sitting room adjoining the kitchen gives you the chance to spread out.

You’ll always feel part of the action when hosting summer BBQs; the sizeable kitchen with good bench space and breakfast bar has windows opening out to the entertaining area, nicely situated to capture northern and western sun. Gardens teeming with colour mean you should always be able to fill a vase, and the lemon tree is superb. The feature pond full of happy fish provides a real ‘feel good’ factor and conversation piece in the backyard.

Sure, there’s scope for new buyers to modernise and put their own stamp on the property, but it already offers so much. Designed with a floor plan that’s just a little bit different, with double living, two bathrooms and large main bedroom with walk-in robe – there are exciting possibilities on offer here. You’re buying brick, great section, amazing location, and a property with potential.

Located in a quiet community-minded spot, not far from shopping centres and almost every desired facility, this is a must view property. Knightsbridge itself has a real neighbourly feel; it’s a lovely place to walk the dog or cycle around. Greenmeadows and Taradale shops, sports clubs, wineries and restaurants are nearby.
