- Steeped in character and rich in history, this relocated early-1900s home offers the timeless appeal of a bygone era combined with the comfort and convenience of modern living. Positioned at the end of a quiet cul-de-sac, this charming residence is the perfect opportunity for first home buyers, downsizers or savvy investors looking to secure a home on its own freehold title without the ongoing expense of body corporate fees. Inside, you'll immediately appreciate the classic features that make homes of this era so sought after, including soaring 3-metre ceilings and the warmth of mostly original VJ walls throughout. The spacious air-conditioned living area provides a comfortable place to relax, while the renovated modern kitchen offers plenty of functionality for everyday living. The home features three generous bedrooms, with the master suite offering a large walk-in robe and private ensuite. Adding even greater versatility, the master bedroom enjoys its own separate entrance from the front deck, making it an ideal home office, consulting room or small business space where clients can conveniently access the ensuite without entering the remainder of the home. The main bathroom is generously sized and includes a shower over bath, while the upstairs laundry is conveniently positioned in the hallway. There is also an exciting opportunity for the new owner to further enhance the home's value. Updating the bathroom finishes and installing your choice of new flooring-whether floating timber-look flooring, tiles or carpet-will allow you to personalise the home to suit your own style while adding your own finishing touches. Outside, the easy-care 357m² allotment offers all the benefits of owning your own land without spending every weekend maintaining a large yard. It's the perfect balance for those wanting the long-term capital growth of freehold property while enjoying a low-maintenance lifestyle. A single lock-up garage with an automatic door provides secure parking, while the mezzanine storage area is ideal for camping gear, Christmas decorations, sporting equipment or all those extra items that are difficult to store inside the home. The location is equally impressive, with direct access to the popular Black Gully Reserve, where you'll enjoy walking trails, a Disc Golf course, an off-leash dog area, a dog park and outdoor fitness equipment. St Andrew's Hospital is just a short stroll away, while several schools, shopping centres and everyday conveniences are only minutes from your doorstep.
