ORIGINAL COTTAGE ON OFFER

This home presents a few options for those ready to consider a change.
Accept the challenge of breathing new life into a 1950s-era fibro cottage, or take advantage of a large, level block and redevelop - as others on the street have done.
Located only 100 metres from the “brand-new” Mount Lockyer Primary School, it is also on the town bus route, and is a short drive from town, sports, and shopping centres.
From the road, the house sits quietly behind a picket fence and a well-established native garden. A single undercover carport sits alongside the home, an original dwelling typical of the era it was built.
As you step through the front door you find yourself in a jarrah entryway. To one side you see a traditional sitting room and the kitchen and to the other, two bedrooms.
The sitting room is a generous size, with high ceilings and a large window overlooking the front garden. The original fireplace is here, with a gas heater now but possibly able to be restored and used again for fires.
The kitchen is also true to 1950s homes, with the original tiled recess for the Metter’s stove still in place. Today, the kitchen is served by an upright gas oven, however some other aspects from the era can be spotted in the room.
Off to the left from the entry, the home’s two bedrooms are found. They are both of a good size and could clean up nicely with some work. The second bedroom gives access to a further, small room towards the rear of the home, which could potentially become a 3rd bedroom with some relatively minor adjustments.
From the kitchen you step into what was once the back porch. Now enclosed, this area provides access to the bathroom and separate toilet. The bathroom includes a shower over a bath, and a vanity with bench.
Fittings for a laundry are included within the enclosed porch also.
Stepping out from here, you discover an undercover patio and a large, enclosed backyard.
A triple bay Colorbond shed, with double roller doors is at the back of the block and there is vehicle access to the secure yard. It is quite neat, with a striking gum tree providing shade over the lawned area.
This property is listed for sale as it is. It poses a few challenges in its present state, but they may be exactly what you are ready for. Alternatively, as it is situated on a large parcel of land you might choose to clear it instead and build from a clean slate. Either way, an opportunity is waiting for you!
