Location, Layout & Low Maintenance
Starting with Location … Alkina Street is in arguably one of Kenmore's most desired precincts being within very easy walking distance to Kenmore Plaza and Kenmore Tavern, Wongabel Street eateries, shops, services and loads of public transport options on both Marshall Lane and Moggill Road.
With loads of space, the Layout is perfect for growing families with open plan living and generously proportioned bedrooms upstairs. Meanwhile, downstairs offers the most amazing blank canvas with great options for additional bedrooms, kids' zone, work-from-home or to easily create a self-contained granny flat perfect for the multi-generational family.
The home itself has clearly been very well maintained making it very move-in-ready but it is the garden particularly which is not only low maintenance but very kid friendly. Not very often in Kenmore do you find not only a good-sized pool but a large, flat back yard … all experienced buyers in Kenmore will know a yard like this is practically like discovering the holy grail! Not to mention the front yard is also not only flat but fully fenced and just for fun has been turned into a mini putting green.
Don't make me use the cliché "get in quick to view because this one will go fast". If you've been looking for a family home in Kenmore for a while then you will already know this to be true.
