The Snapshot
If you've been searching for a spacious block with room to move, play and plan for the future this is it. Set on a sprawling 726sqm parcel with rare rear lane access, 21 Farnsworth Street comes complete with DA approval for a second 3-bedroom dwelling at the rear of the existing home. Whether you're looking to upsize, invest, or futureproof, this property offers a ready-made opportunity to generate dual income or accommodate extended family, all within a peaceful yet well-connected pocket of Thornton.
The Home
21 Farnsworth Street has good bones, a fresh feel, and a standout block packed with potential. Neatly presented and set on a generous 726sqm in the heart of Thornton, it offers a rare combination of move-in-ready comfort and development flexibility ideal for investors, first-home buyers, or those looking to capitalise on the approved plans for a second dwelling.
From the front, the cladding-and-Colorbond façade sets a relaxed, low-maintenance tone, while established lawns and a concrete driveway add great street appeal. The rear lane access is a huge bonus for future development, and the freestanding single garage adds extra value for storage, parking or workshop space.
Inside, the home feels light and practical thanks to renovated kitchen, bathroom and laundry. There are multiple sunrooms one at the front and another at the rear providing bonus space for a second living area, home office, or creative zone.
A striking fireplace mantel in the main living room brings a sense of character, while the adjoining kitchen is both functional and inviting, with timber-look cabinetry, a Westinghouse standalone cooktop and oven, a double sink, and plenty of bench space. It's ready to use now, with plenty of scope to personalise over time.
All three bedrooms are tiled for easy care, all featuring built-in wardrobes and two with access to the front sunroom for extra light and connection. The bathroom includes a frameless shower and a sleek modern vanity, and there's a separate powder room at the rear for added convenience.
The internal laundry includes storage and sink space. And the backyard? It's full of possibility. Fully fenced and impressively sized, it's perfect for entertaining, gardening, pets or progressing with the construction of the already-approved second dwelling to create a dual occupancy setup or rental stream.
Centrally located just moments from Thornton Shopping Village, local schools, and the train station with Green Hills, Maitland Hospital, and the M1 all close by this address blends everyday convenience with long-term potential.
