Stone’s throw from nature

Perfectly scaled and proportioned for everyday living, this property at Dianella showcases plenty of charm and 70s character.

The single-storey, brick-and-tile home is situated on a large 728sqm block across from Mount Yokine Reservoir and just down the road from the Eastland/Molloy Reserve.

Dempsey Real Estate Sales Agent Glenda Cooper said this property would appeal to a range of buyers, especially families wanting to create their dream home.

“The home is ideally located opposite the water reservoir on a quiet street with some views to the hills,” she said.

“Should you build a new home, a second storey would have beautiful views to the hills.”

Surrounded by a broad mix of housing, including old homes on large blocks and new homes near the former Channel Seven and Nine sites, Ms Cooper said Dianella was a family-friendly suburb with wonderful community amenities.

“The location is ideal as it is close to all amenities, including shopping centres, schools, public transport routes and parks,” she said.

Inside, the home’s layout is free-flowing and includes an open-plan sitting, dining and kitchen area. Further to the rear is a sunken lounge room that includes a feature fireplace.

The lounge connects to another large space at the back, which Ms Cooper said could be used as a sunroom or games area.

“The sunroom or games room measures 9.2m by 3.5m and overlooks the patio with views to the hills,” she said.

“The patio and huge sun-drenched rear yard give plenty of play and entertaining area for the whole family.”
