If the appeal of a smaller home is fewer jobs rather than less character, this one starts ahead. It is the front unit in a group of three with its own street frontage, and the white colonial-style bay window sets the tone for a single-storey brick and tile home that has been thoroughly reworked.
The lounge is built around a glass-fronted gas log fireplace, with built-in black cabinetry and open timber shelving above, so the storage and the focal point share one wall. Whitewashed pine floorboards run throughout, an arched doorway links the rooms and designer pendant lights carry the detailing.
The renovated kitchen pairs woodgrain cabinetry with pale benchtops and a subway tile splashback, and runs a gas cooktop, stainless steel oven, rangehood and dishwasher. The laundry doubles as a butler's pantry, keeping bulk storage out of the kitchen, while the central dining area opens to the courtyard.
Both bedrooms are well proportioned, the main with a walk-in robe, and the renovated bathroom takes a marble-topped double vanity, matte black tapware, mirrored cabinets, a frameless shower screen and floor-to-ceiling white tiles.
Out the back, the paved courtyard sits under a pergola, enclosed by timber screening, climbing greenery and brush fencing, creating a private, low-maintenance outdoor entertaining area.

Kensington Gardens sits within the City of Burnside, and this home has its own street frontage rather than sitting behind another.
For a professional couple the draw is the design, with the black joinery, the pendants and the fireplace already in place. For a downsizer it is two proper bedrooms, a single-storey, low-maintenance home, a secure lock-up garage with space for a second car off-street, and storage that has been planned rather than found.

Two-bedroom homes renovated to this standard, with a screened pergola-covered courtyard and their own street frontage, are difficult to replace in Kensington Gardens, and being the front unit with its own street frontage is the one thing no later renovation can add.
