Renovated. Sophisticated. Year-round entertainer.

There’s a difference between a home that’s been freshened up for sale and one where the renovation has genuinely been done properly. This is the second kind.

The finish tells you straight away. Timber slat feature walls with LED lighting set into them, a linear fireplace built into the panelling, profiled cabinetry and a full-height splashback in the kitchen, and full-height tiling in the main bathroom.

But it’s the extras that set it apart. A smart mirror in the bathroom, a heated towel rail, bidets to both toilets with a heated seat in the ensuite, keyless entry. None of it was necessary, which is exactly the point. It’s the kind of detail you only get when someone renovates for themselves rather than for a sale.

3 bedrooms, 2 bathrooms, and 2 separate living areas on 640m2, split-system heating and cooling backed up by evaporative, and a drive-through double garage running to the rear yard for the boat, van, or trailer.

Then there’s the alfresco. The dining area opens onto a paved space on the same level, and with the blinds down it stops behaving like an outdoor area at all. It becomes another room, and it’s already set up as one, with a ceiling fan, TV point and bar fridge. The rear faces south-east, so it takes the morning light and sits in shade through the afternoon, and with panel heaters you’ll use it in July as happily as January.

Past it, a covered walkway runs down the side to a level lawn and the powered shed, and the paving and path have both been painted, so the whole surround reads as one finished space.

Quiet, established Mildura West grove, close to Mildura West Primary and St Joseph’s College Mercy Campus, minutes to Langtree Avenue (Feast Street), and a 15 minute walk or a 5 minute ride down to Lock 11 and the riverfront.
