Treasured by Betty's family since its construction in 1958, this pristine post-war home combines retro charm, immediate liveability, and endless potential.
Immaculate inside and out, prepare to be transported to yesteryear by the home's elegant architectural design and vintage finishes.
From the hardwood floors protected beneath carpet for decades, to the classic terrazzo bathroom tiling, and revived trend of blush pink accents, the interior is a tribute to the downsizing owner Bettys sheer love for this property.
Set back from the street behind white picket fencing, the high-set residence is bordered by lush sprawling lawns offering rare space and privacy. With its cute curb appeal and spacious floorplan, growing families can move straight in to enjoy all that is already on offer.
Alternatively, take advantage of the solid foundations, lofty high ceilings, and retained original details to add personal flair and value to this unique home. Whether it is a quick, low-cost refurbishment, extension to the rear, or further raise and build-in, the options for this property are limitless.
And of course, the purchase of a post-war home on a large high-growth land parcel provides the perfect opportunity to construct a brand-new luxury family residence down the track subject to BCC. For those looking the ultimate building site now, the home could easily be rented out to minimise holding costs while plans are undertaken.
