78 Bletchington Street presents a flexible opportunity in a well-established East Orange location. Set on a substantial 1,143m² block, this three-bedroom, one-bathroom home will appeal to first home buyers seeking space to grow, downsizers who still value land size and workshop space, and investors looking for a well-presented property with strong fundamentals.
The home has undergone extensive updates in recent years, offering a fresh and low-maintenance interior. At the centre is a timeless white kitchen finished in classic shaker-style cabinetry, complemented by a subway tile splashback and quality fittings. It features a freestanding 900mm stove, dishwasher and full-height pantry, providing both practicality and excellent storage.
The kitchen connects seamlessly to the dining and living zones, which enjoy extensive glazing and a desirable north-facing orientation, allowing natural light to fill the main living spaces throughout the day. Comfort is ensured year-round with ducted gas heating, two split system air conditioners and ceiling fans throughout.
Accommodation comprises three well-proportioned bedrooms, all with built-in robes and serviced by an updated bathroom finished with neutral white tiles and complete with a full-size bathtub and separate shower.
Externally, the scale of the block is a clear advantage. The expansive rear yard features a double shed with lights, power and lined internal walls, along with additional storage shedding and a chicken run, making it well suited to trades, hobbies or those needing extra workspace. A large paved and covered outdoor entertaining area further enhances the backyard, providing a private setting for relaxed, all-season gatherings.
Off street parking is catered for with a single carport and single garage. The garage currently includes an internal partition used for storage; removal of this partition would restore secure single vehicle garaging and reinstate drive-through access to the rear yard.
The generous landholding also offers future flexibility. Subject to Orange City Council approval, the block size may allow for the addition of a granny flat, creating potential for extended family accommodation or supplementary income. While there is currently no side vehicle access, there may be scope to position a granny flat to the rear of the block with occupants utilising on-street parking.
With extensive updates, excellent orientation and a significant landholding in East Orange, 78 Bletchington Street represents a well-rounded opportunity in the current market.
