Overview

COMFORT, SPACE & FUTURE POTENTIAL

Proudly Presented by Lettia Gavin and Ashley-John Hatch of One Agency Elite Property Group. Offering a welcoming combination of comfort, practicality and exciting potential, this neat and cosy home presents an excellent opportunity for first-home buyers, investors or those looking to secure a property with room to grow. Set on a generous 588sqm parcel of land, the home provides a comfortable foundation with scope to add value over time. Whether you’re entering the property market or searching for your next investment, this is an opportunity worth exploring. Inside, the home features a spacious, light-filled living area, where a large window allows natural light to filter throughout the space. Split-system air conditioning provides year-round comfort, while both bedrooms feature ceiling fans and one includes a built-in wardrobe. A neat and functional bathroom complements the practical layout, creating a comfortable home ready to enjoy. Outside, the generous backyard offers plenty of room for the family to spread out and enjoy. With no rear neighbours and a gate providing direct access to a large grassed open area, there is even more space for children to run, play and enjoy the outdoors. A double garage adds further practicality, while the substantial block provides an exciting opportunity for buyers looking to maximise the property’s potential. For investors and those looking to create an additional income stream, the 588sqm block presents an opportunity to explore the potential for a dual-income setup with the addition of a granny flat, subject to council approval and applicable planning requirements. The possibility of retaining the existing home while adding a secondary dwelling could appeal to buyers seeking to maximise rental income and make the most of the available land. Buyers are encouraged to make their own enquiries with Wollongong City Council regarding zoning, site requirements and development feasibility. Conveniently positioned in Berkeley, the property offers access to local shops, recreational facilities and the natural beauty of Lake Illawarra. Berkeley’s local shopping precinct, netball courts and public pool are nearby, while Warrawong Plaza provides a wider selection of retail and dining options.
