A must-view for buyers looking to get a first footing on the property ladder and investors who can spot 'big picture' potential, 15 Manya Avenue is a modest 3-bed home that offers low-maintenance in a location that puts a park on your doorstep, and all other amenities within a short drive.
Baring the hallmarks of its mid-60's build, some of which remain ever-in-vogue like the solid timber floorboards in the bedrooms, there's wiggle room here to value-add - whether as an owner occupier or investor. Both the kitchen and bathroom are all-original and, while functional, could be reimagined with upgrades to more modern cabinetry and hardware. Even a lick of fresh interior paint would take this place to new heights and amp up the rental appeal.
As is, the layout offers a tiled lounge off the entry, flowing into a combined kitchen/dining area, while the 3 bedrooms branch off a connecting passage. The bathroom has a shower and tub, the WC next door beside the laundry. Opening onto a big rear verandah is a bonus rumpus and handy storeroom/tool shed - with a separate garden shed down the side. Landscaping is basic. which could suit renters, but if you're a green thumb you have a blank canvas to get creative on.
The location is one of the star features here, with a leafy park directly across the street and several shopping hubs, the train station for city trips, and local schools - all within a 5-minute drive at most. This retro residence is ripe for a reno that would return it to its original glory, or perhaps this becomes the site for a dream build down the line (STCC). Options aplenty!
