A Golden Opportunity
HOME OPENS CANCELLED
Offers Close 12pm on Friday 2nd July 2021 Unless Sold Prior
Whether you're a first home buyer or an investor, this property is a marvellous opportunity for a well-priced and well-located home in gorgeous Darlington. Built in the mid-70's, this home has only had one owner and they've taken great care of it since then, which is why it presents so well now and offers an authentic 70's vibe that you can either work with or completely renovate. Best of all, the big half-acre block provides beautiful bushland surrounds and a treetop vista that can be enjoyed from under the pergola.
The split level design of this home offers interesting elements such as sunken rooms and balustrades that can be incorporated into an ultra-modern makeover or left as is for that timeless charm that comes with them. The big built-in wardrobe to the main bedroom makes storage simple, and while the house itself isn't huge, it's comfortably sized and there's still room to move. The sweet kitchen is perfectly useable and in tip top condition, so if you enjoy simple pleasures like a cup of tea and the odd scone, you'll be right at home here.
Features Include:
· Original condition
· Blank canvas - add your own touches
· 1974 build brick & tile home
· Split level design
· Set down a long driveway
· 3 bedrooms 1 bathroom
· Open plan lounge/dining with high ceilings

· Single carport
· Lovely treetop vista with the twinkling of Northern suburbs lights at night
· Bush block
· 2,025sqm (half an acre)
· Set opposite Greenmount National Park
· Exceptional value (just over land value)
The location of this home is a major drawcard. Situated across the road from the Greenmount National Park with all its walking trails and lookouts, it's a prime spot for those who revel in the great outdoors. It's only minutes away from shops and schools but isn't close enough for any of the hustle and bustle of daily life, and being a battle-axe block means there's nothing that will disturb your peace - not that it's a busy street anyway! Privacy and serenity is the name of the game here, so pick up this gem of a property, pick your design style, and settle in for a life of comfort and leisure.
