Overview

Renovate To Reap The Rewards!

Perfectly tucked away in the no-through end of Swanston Street, this adorable entry-level home offers much to the savvy buyer - with its original character features, this Californian Bungalow style 2-3 bedroom plus sunroom home is ripe for renovation! With high ceilings, original elaborate ceiling roses, picture rail, dados, and timber floors - they just don't make them like they used to! It benefits from a spacious block, complete with back yard vehicular access, and established landscaping in the front yard. The back yard is a canvas waiting for you - with so much space on offer! Get your green thumb on, and develop the exact type of garden haven you desire, or a market-garden for fresh produce, or even build a big shed (STCA) that you've always dreamed of. - 2-3 bedrooms, plus enclosed front porch is a relaxing and warm sunroom where you can admire the green and rural area outlook - Kitchen overlooks the back yard - Bathroom has shower-over-bath - Separate toilet, essential for family and visitor convenience - The separate dining room is spacious, and is adjacent to the spacious living room with original double-sided brick open fireplace (not in use) - Electric heating in lounge - Central entry hall is spacious, typical of the era - Ornate ceiling roses, high ceilings, picture rails, dados, original character door handles, and timber floors - Single car garage (powered) is oversized, great for workshop/storage space plus small undercover carport section at the front - There are two sheds in the rear yard, one metal garden shed at the back fence line, plus another, larger timber shed near the back door (also powered) great as a workshop/hang out zone - The walking trails of the Romaine Reserve 12.7-ha nature park start mere meters away, at the dead-end of Swanston Street: here you can easily get back to nature and get up those steps walking, cycling or jogging the many pleasant bush trails or enjoy the public barbecue facilities while the kids play on the park equipment - Located on the fringe of Burnie, giving the home lovely rural and green area views, yet only 2.6km (5 min drive) to Burnie's CBD or 2.2km (5 min drive) from Upper Burnie shopping area In today's market, entry-level homes under $400,000 can be hard to find - and fewer still have the lovely original character this home has in spades - lending itself to a worthy renovation project that is entirely liveable as-is. Here, you can move in, and slowly upgrade/renovate as you go. Isn't it time to get off the rental roundabout, and into something you can call your very own?
