Nothing about this home pretends to be perfect because it knows what potential it has. Right in family-favourite, wildly convenient Swan View, this brick and tile duplex is the kind of place that will so reward vision and some elbow grease. If you're a first homebuyer who really wants to get out of the rental rat race, move fast, because this property is going to attract all the renovators who know that sweat equity is still one of the smartest investments around. With only two homes on the block and no strata fees, no common walls, and a generous slice of the land, you'll get independence, privacy, and room to dream as big as you can. You can slowly (or enthusiastically) transform a solid, honest home into something that feels entirely yours.
Inside, the layout is refreshingly functional with great bones just awaiting their glow-up. The kitchen and dining zone feature a practical U-shaped design that makes sense with plenty of benchtop space, a breakfast bar for morning coffees or homework monitoring, and a freestanding oven and rangehood already in place. The cabinetry is a bit of a throwback but it pairs with retro groove to the patterned lino and tiled splashback. If vintage is your thing, you might want to keep a couple of these elements or completely gut the area and make it fresh and bright. Ceiling fans in the bedrooms keep things breezy and the living spaces are filled with natural light. The retro bathroom has a walk-in shower and vanity unit and is fully functional, but absolutely begging for a modern makeover. There's also a separate WC, practical laundry, and plenty of flexibility throughout.

• Solid 1979 brick & tile duplex with honest bones
• Renovator's dream ready for a full glow-up
• 3 well-proportioned bedrooms with ceiling fans

Whatever your dreamy backyard looks like it's ready for lawn, garden beds, fire pit, veggie patches, cubby house or all of the above! Build whatever you love with side access that drives straight through to a small workshop that'll also house your bikes or tools. A single carport is the spot for the car - keeping it out of the way of all the projects.
