$990,000-$1.08 million
4 bedrooms, 2 bathrooms, 2 parking spaces

Some properties genuinely surprise as you get deeper into their footprints, and this light and bright renovated property in bayside Melbourne is one of them. Behind its appealing front facade, two living areas and spotless kitchen, is a huge undercover deck overlooking a lush back garden. A tandem garage converted to a man cave is a bonus.
