If these walls could talk... they'd have some stories to tell. They've witnessed family gatherings, everyday life, and perhaps a few decisions that seemed like a good idea at the time! Time has certainly left its mark, creating an exciting opportunity for someone ready to renovate, add value and reap the rewards. Whether you're an investor, builder or first-home buyer looking for a project, this is one worth considering.
Built in 1926, this home offers approximately 130m2 of floor area on a manageable 449m2 section. A covered front porch leads into the central hallway, with three bedrooms and the bathroom located off the hall before opening into the living area. The living room is heated by a log fire with heat transfer, providing a practical space ready for renovation.
The kitchen is functional and opens to the living area, providing a practical layout with scope to renovate and create a more modern space. Whether you're updating for yourself or future tenants, there's plenty of potential to add value.
Accommodation includes three bedrooms plus a utility room, giving flexibility for families, hobbies, a home office or extra storage. The bathroom is centrally located, while a separate laundry with a second toilet adds convenience to the existing floor plan.
Outside, the section is easy to maintain, leaving your time and budget focused on the renovation itself. Located in a popular rental area and close to everyday amenities, the property presents an excellent opportunity for those looking to improve, invest or enter the market.
Properties like this are becoming harder to find. If you've been searching for a home where your hard work can make a real difference, bring your vision, roll up your sleeves and unlock the potential on offer.
