Missed out on buying one of the renovated and sought-after elevated homes of late, then leap into this one.

Situated in Wanguri in Darwin’s northern suburbs, this elevated home has recently been given a face lift having survived many of Darwin’s major cyclones. It is close to a choice of Government and private primary schools, senior college, and the university, and a short drive to the airport.

It is also within walking distance of:
* Medical centres and the hospital,
* Darwin’s major shopping centre, Casuarina,
* sporting facilities and clubs
* beach and cycle paths.

Stylishly renovated, this three-bedroom house is designed for the tropics with high ceilings, louvred windows and fans. The lounge and main bedroom also have air conditioning.

Upstairs is perfect for Territory living amongst the treetops with:
* a timber deck overlooking the park at the front of the building
* another timber deck leading into the garden at the back
* shaded areas for outdoor dining or relaxing.

The contemporary kitchen has modern fixtures, with a breakfast bar and plenty of storage, and the spacious bathroom has recently been renovated.

Downstairs there’s a mixture of utility and secluded pool courtyard areas:
* a second bathroom leads on to the pool
* with a large tiled internal laundry alongside
* a private saltwater pool
all hidden away in well-established gardens.

There’s plenty of space and height for undercover parking for two vehicles or a boat, or future development.
Currently rented until August 2011 at $590* per week.
