What's around 157 Ogilvie St

PREMIER POSITION WITH CITY PROXIMITY AND PRIME DEVELOPMENT POTENTIAL (STCA)

The future lies in the potential offered by this neat 2 bedroom brick veneer home. Originally one of a pair of semi-detached residences, the 1950s built home with a touch of art deco design provides scope for renovation, an astute rental investment (as it has been recently), or the site for redevelopment as a new luxury home (STCA). Conveniently close to numerous family focused amenities, this well-maintained home could be lived in as it is while waiting to redevelop or planning modernisation. The layout features spacious living room and separate dining room, main bedroom with large front garden window and a wall of innovative robes, plus a well-sized 2nd bedroom. Highlighting a modern kitchen with stainless steel freestanding stove and dishwasher, and by contrast, a striking original bathroom to be appreciated for its retro personality. At the rear is a covered alfresco terrace…. bring your own BBQ…. and adjoining studio presenting a private and quiet WFH opportunity. The city tram runs at the end of the street. Niddrie Shopping Precinct is around the corner, a vast collection of shops, eateries and services. Parks, playgrounds and sporting reserves are nearby. Zoned for Essendon North Primary and Buckley Park College with St John Bosco’s Primary and St Bernard’s College nearby. Minutes to Essendon and Melbourne Airports, Calder Freeway and Citylink. * Timber floors * Electric and solar hot water * Gas ducted heating * Water tank with pump (garden) * Garden storage shed * Off-street driveway parking Terms: 10% deposit, balance 30/45/60 days

Excellent service that exceeded expectations

David has a comprehensive understanding of the market and of the property's potential. He provided high quality service at each stage of the selling process, offering good advice on the best way to present the property and an excellent marketing campaign. His communication was very strong with regular updates on how the campaign was progressing after each 'open for inspection' date. He is an engaging and enthusiastic auctioneer and maintained strong interest and input from four bidders throughout the auction. The results exceeded our expectations.

Amazing team - highly experienced with outstanding communication processes.

David is a highly professional agent who is diligent and communicative. He knew the market extremely well and understood how to effectively promote our home. He kept us in the loop over the whole process and prepared us for the auction. He explained what to expect and how he would approach different scenarios. As an auctioneer David is extremely talented. He ran an extraordinary auction with 4 bidders that went for nearly half an hour. We couldn’t have asked for a better result. Can’t recommend David highly enough.
