Here’s an exciting project for a first home buyer, family buyer or investor looking to pick up an already great value home and add further value with a straightforward renovation and facelift. Those astute enough to recognise its excellent possibilities and roll up their sleeves will be rewarded with a solid family home on a whopping 1,831sqm corner block with a double garage-workshop and a freestanding games room. Though the wet areas and kitchen are dated, and some flooring and décor need replacement, there’s a lot to admire about this 1970s property. Tucked away from the road behind a screen of native trees and a U-shaped driveway, the brick veneer home enjoys a private setting with a lovely outlook onto the well-maintained backyard, which is mostly in grass with a few tall trees and ample space for growing veggies and planting fruit trees. An air-conditioned lounge is the main living room, where good natural light pours in from three windows on two walls and a wood fire makes for cosy winters. Adjoining this is a sizeable dining area and then the functional kitchen, with neutral ceramic floor tiling and gas cooking. Sure to be a popular spot for family barbecues and entertaining is the big, undercover patio – a relaxing space for chilling out and watching the birdlife attracted to the lush back garden. Two of the three bedrooms are queen sized and the third is a double, and there’s an office or study. The bathroom has a bath (that requires reconnecting to the septic system), walk-in shower (that needs a little TLC) and vanity, and the toilet is off the laundry. Accessed around the corner from the home, the double garage-workshop has power connected, workbenches installed in one half and a walk-through door from the backyard. There’s also a single garage next to the house for the family car. Offering plenty of scope for artistic types or active teens, the Colorbond games room or studio is a real bonus. This concrete-floored structure is lined and has sliding glass doors and power. Another key attraction of this real estate is its convenient location, only six minutes from town and within easy reach of a major supermarket and schools. This is an outstanding opportunity to snap up a substantial property, modernise it and move in – or lease it to realise impressive returns in the burgeoning rental market.
