A lovely trim lawn and privacy hedges sit at the front of this prominent facade, with the brick and timber home just behind, ready for your loving modern touch. At the right is a single carport, with extra parking space at the front of the property. To the left you'll find a side access gate leading to the backyard and external side staircase for added ease.

The front entrance opens to built-in lower level with a variety of multipurpose rooms, and the interior staircase to the upper living level.

Beautiful natural light fills the upstairs living room through walls of windows, with a modern ceiling fan and air-conditioning unit to keep you cool and comfortable no matter how sweltering the summertime feels.

Towards the back you'll find the dining room and adjacent kitchen, with the well-kept original cabinetry ready for an easy refresh but laid out with good bones for those looking to get straight into a much bigger renovation!

The upper level has access to two separate balconies, one at the front off the living and the other at the rear off the dining room, providing even more spaces for peaceful relaxation away from the hustle and bustle of the household.

The hallway leads to the three bedrooms each with ceiling fans, and the family bathroom with a separately housed toilet and a linen closet for added convenience.

Downstairs is where the flexible floorplan really shines. While not legal height, there is potential for you to raise the home if you take this beauty back to the studs, creating a full two-storey haven.

Currently, the lower level opens with the first entertaining area featuring a dry bar and direct access to the covered and partially enclosed patio perfect for larger gatherings.

Three other multipurpose rooms include the thoroughfare laundry with heaps of built-in storage, with each space offering plenty of options for larger families looking to move straight in.

The best part about this fantastic block is the grand backyard. Spacious and level (with a Hills Hoist and garden shed), this land is perfect for you to realise your dreams - you could potentially even build a modern granny flat on the back of the block to live in while you renovate the current home! Whether building a new home, subdividing, or even putting in a pool (STCA), the opportunities are endless!

Ripe for a renovation, this sturdy structure can be updated slowly with a fresh coat of paint, or else you can start fresh by clearing out the asbestos walls and ceiling, pulling it back to the studs, and building your family's dream home from the get-go!

Whatever your end goals, this opportunity is not one to be missed! Get started on your journey today and give Team Kevin Ahn a call to sneak in an inspection.
