60 Cressida Avenue, Stratford, Taranaki

There's something about this home that just feels good the moment you walk through the door. Light, sunny and wonderfully homely, this tidy three-bedroom Lockwood offers a fantastic opportunity for first-home buyers looking for a place they can move into and enjoy.

Painted throughout the interior with light and neutral colours, the classic Lockwood features have been given a fresh, bright feel while still retaining the warmth and character these homes are known for. The open-plan kitchen and dining flows through to the step-down lounge, creating a welcoming and comfortable space for everyday living whilst the heat pump and freestanding fireplace ensure you'll be comfortable whatever the season.

There are three bedrooms, with the master enjoying the added bonus of its own ensuite and walk-in wardrobe - a great feature, particularly in this price range.

Outside, the sunny deck is the perfect spot to relax with your morning coffee, fire up the BBQ or unwind at the end of the day and the attached carport offers covered parking, with a handy lockable storage shed positioned at the rear for bikes, tools and all the extras.

With a near-new roof already taken care of and a great cul-de-sac location adding to the appeal, this is a home that offers comfort, practicality and plenty of value. There's a lot on offer here to make life easy.

Sunny, homely, affordable and positioned in a great location - this property is 'a warm welcome home'
