Directly opposite a large park and within a 10-minute walk of the station and popular Houdinis Cafe e Cucina, this property is part of the rapid development of a country town within 35 minutes of Melbourne CBD and 20 from Melbourne Airport.
This one would make an ideal first home, or an investment with an expected rental income of about $450 a week. With Diggers Rest Primary School just two minutes away, the parkside location just gets better for families.

A typical floor plan has a grey-carpeted open lounge room to the left of the entry hall. It has the same blockout blinds as on all windows.
The oaken-grey floor planks in the hallway continue through to the living hub which has lots of windows admitting natural light. The kitchen, with walk-in pantry behind a sliding door, has stone benches, white splashback tiles, an Asko dishwasher and Veneto 900mm gas cooktop and underbench oven.
The main bedroom, the first cab off
the rank in the entry hall, has a walk-in wardrobe and an open en suite with chocolate-toned vanity topped with mocha laminate.
A carpeted rear hallway, with a study nook, leads to three fitted bedrooms, laundry with closet, separate toilet and smart main bathroom.
The integrated alfresco faces back and side yards with plenty of lawn space for kids and pets.
The lawn is the tough buffalo grass variety and it’s kept healthy via a sprinkler system – as are the pretty perimeter gardens. A paved area in one corner could be either utility or sun-soaking area.
The two-year-old Dennis Family Homes property also has ducted heating, evaporative cooling and a Bosch alarm. The double garage has internal access via the entry hall.
