What's around 61 Ashburner St

Flying High in Higgins and Price Coming in For Landing

Owners have committed elsewhere and are committed to selling. This mainly original 3 bedroom home is not your average ‘ex-govie' but was built specifically for the Royal Australia Air Force (RAAF) Back in those early days you can imagine the stories that were shared as defence families relaxed in the open plan living area and around the dining table. After many years of distinguished service, the home was sold with the current owners moving in 16 years ago. Now surrounded by established gardens and trees, the property is located in a quiet street in a sought-after pocket of Higgins. Having been well maintained over the years and with ‘good bones' the home offers great potential for being renovated and extended. The kitchen is original with a pantry and gas stove, all bedrooms have built in robes and polished timber floors while the recently updated bathroom is disability friendly. With colourbond fencing on all sides, the back yard really is a ‘blank canvas' offering so many great options for future family enjoyment. There's room for two cars plus a workshop area in the garage as well as an attached single carport. A nearby walkway leads to Starke St directly across from Kingsford Smith School and public transport. The home is centrally located and a short drive to the Kippax Centre, Higgins & Holt shops. This is an affordable and comfortable entry level home with future potential to become a real ‘head turner' in Asburner.
