Positioned in a quiet, well-regarded pocket of Higgins, 61 Ashburner Street offers a rare blend of accessibility, comfort and lifestyle convenience. Originally built specifically for the Royal Australian Air Force (RAAF), the home carries a solid, practical design that has been thoughtfully adapted for disability access while remaining warm and welcoming. It will appeal to families, downsizers, first home buyers, investors and anyone seeking easy living close to shops, parks and public transport.
At the heart of the home is an open plan kitchen, dining and living zone designed for everyday comfort and connection. A Regency gas fireplace creates a cosy focal point, complemented by laminate flooring, a ceiling fan and seamless flow to the outdoor entertaining areas. The kitchen is practical and well laid out with gas cooktop, ducted rangehood and generous bench space, while block out and sheer roller blinds throughout provide privacy and light control.
Accommodation includes three well-proportioned bedrooms, all with built in wardrobes and a ceiling fan to the main bedroom. The renovated bathroom has been carefully designed with accessibility in mind, featuring mirrored shaving cabinets and an open shower with rails, alongside a separate toilet. A new gas hot water system, linen storage and a laundry with external access complete the functional interior.
Outside, the home continues to impress. A large front entertaining deck and rear deck with pergola offer flexible spaces for relaxing or hosting, while the backyard is ideal for keen gardeners, complete with a water tank and large garden shed. Secure Colorbond fencing, wheelchair accessible ramps to both the front and rear yards, a double tandem carport with double gates, a double tandem garage suitable for a car, boat or camper trailer, and additional off-street parking ensure practicality for a wide range of lifestyles.
All of this is set within walking distance to Kippax Fair, local schools, parks and public transport, delivering a genuinely convenient Higgins lifestyle. This is a home that balances thoughtful accessibility with solid construction, warmth and location, ready to support its next owners at every stage of life.
