Ant's "Fluff-Free" Description...
Here's the straight story. From the street, 36 Groningen Road is modest.
Inside, it's anything but - approximately 140m2 under roof, flooded with light, and capped off by an enclosed all-weather verandah that runs the full 11-metre length of the home. It's the kind of bonus space most homes at this price point simply don't have.
Built in 1975 of solid brick with a metal roof (replaced 2007), it's been properly cared for - renovated bathroom in 2023, the verandah completed and approved in 2020 with double glazed windows, and security mesh and screen doors throughout. Three comfortable bedrooms, multiple living zones, heating options for every Tasmanian mood, and off-street parking for four cars.
All of this in a genuinely quiet, private street within walking distance of Kingston's schools, shops and beach - in a suburb where the median house value sits around $819,000. At Offers over $725,000, this is the realistic entry point first home buyers have been waiting for, and a set-and-forget proposition for investors chasing Kingston's strong rental demand.

THE HONEST BITS (because I don't do surprises)...

* One bathroom, not two - but it's renovated (2023), with the separate toilet keeping the morning peace
THE BOTTOM LINE...
