THE FLUFF: The car slows as you turn into Queenspark Drive. The children are chattering in the backseat, but the eldest presses her nose to the window first.

Set back from the street behind leafy foliage and a crisp driveway, the fully renovated house is modern and yet still full of character. You step out first, key in hand, heart thudding with excitement. You've spent months searching, imagining, hoping. Now here it is: the one.

The front door opens to soft aqua hues and warm light. Polished brass fixtures gleam like jewellery in the modern kitchen. You love the tasteful renovation, a combination of coastal sage green and brass tapware.

Your mind slips into images of cereal mornings and after-school snacks in the kitchen. The kids dash through the house, claiming rooms, opening cupboards, dreaming up where their posters, books, and bedtime stories will go.

You wander into the sunny lounge, pull open the sliding doors, and step onto the back deck. The afternoon light is golden, and the backyard already feels like a sanctuary. You love how there's room to run, a spot for the trampoline, and the perfect place for a veggie patch.

Later, as you unpack boxes and unroll rugs, laughter bounces through the open-plan space. Someone puts on music, and someone else finds the picnic blanket. Dinner is fish and chips on the floor, which seems fitting as the beach is only four minutes away.

You love the proximity to the salty sea air, the ample parks, and the nearby schools. As the stars appear, you stand together under the porch light, listening to the distant hush of the sea, and looking forward to this new chapter.
