A smart move for today and the future!
Here it is - one of the last few original homes left in a street that has already proven exactly what's possible, yet equally well suited to families and first-home buyers looking for size, space and an unbeatable location. This classic 1950s bungalow hasn't been renovated, subdivided or reimagined yet, and that's precisely what makes it so exciting. Set on a generous 788m2 section, there's room for kids and pets to play today, while the size and location offer future development potential. Positioned in one of the town's most tightly held and sought-after streets - in an area of established townhouse developments - this is a property that allows you to live comfortably now while keeping your long-term options firmly on the table. Add to that easy walking distance to both primary and secondary schools and a short stroll into town, and you have a location that works just as well for families as it does for investors and developers. The home itself is solid, spacious and immediately liveable, offering a comfortable base for families now with exciting scope to renovate, modernise or strategically hold over time. Inside, the flexible layout includes separate kitchen, dining and living spaces, a large lounge plus additional family living - ideal for busy households that need room to spread out. There are three generous double bedrooms with wardrobes, including a master with walk-through wardrobe and heat pump, plus a fourth bedroom that works perfectly as a home office, guest room or hobby space. A main bathroom with wet-floor shower, vanity and toilet is complemented by a second separate toilet and dedicated laundry, while year-round comfort is well covered with an inbuilt wood burner, two heat pumps, DVS, gas radiators and gas hot water. Outside, the positioning of the home allows for a large, sunny backyard - along with a long single garage, single carport, garden shed and woodshed - perfect for family life now, with potential to enhance, extend or explore future development options. Whether you're a first-home buyer wanting room to grow, a family chasing space in a prime location, or a developer or investor recognising the long-term value and proven potential of this street, this is a rare opportunity to secure it all in one very smart move.
