There is something easy about a ground floor home. You park, you walk a few steps, you are inside. No lifts, no landings, no carrying shopping bags up a flight while balancing a toddler on your hip.

This 78 square metre two bedroom apartment gives you proper breathing room at the size where most two bedroom units start to feel tight. The main bedroom has its own en-suite, with a second full bathroom for the family, guests or a housemate. It is the layout people actually live in, rather than the one that only looks good on a floor plan.

For an investor, the appeal is straightforward. Two bedrooms with two bathrooms is the configuration tenants search for first, ground floor access widens the pool of people who will consider it, and the monthly holding costs are predictable and modest. For an owner, it is simply a comfortable, low fuss home.
