57 Frederick Street in Eastern Heights offers the savvy an outstanding opportunity to secure an entry level home or cracking investment right in the heart of thriving Ipswich.
Position perfection, this home is sat slightly elevated on a generous 637m2 allotment, just moments from Ipswich Central State School, Ipswich Girls’ Grammar, the University of Southern Queensland and the Ipswich Hospital, and a very short drive to Ipswich CBD & Rail Stations.
The home itself is post-war, and begs the question to renovate or detonate?
Internally the home boasts huge potential; hardwood timber floors hold warmth and appeal, while the lounge, dining and sunroom entrance are oversized with a timber fireplace heater. The aspect from almost every room in the house is leafy and calming.
While the kitchen is relatively solid, it is ripe for renewal; in the meantime, an idea would be for laminate paint to overhaul the appearance and create a more comfortable atmosphere while you plan for a proper replacement, potentially opening the kitchen space more to the large covered entertaining space at the rear.
A central hallway separates living and sleeping; with three bedrooms, heaps of linen storage, a massive bathroom and a separate walk-through toilet room giving easy access through to a large laundry with a doorway out to the entertaining space and clothesline.
While the gardens and grounds are fairly established, there is huge potential here for a heavy prune, enhancement of garden bed edging, and replanting to create a really attractive landscape.
The external walls are clad making for low maintenance living (albeit in need currently of a pressure wash). The garage is a single lock up underneath, with masses of storage too, and the added bonus of a double carport at the rear, accessible by a second driveway.
The yard currently is fenced along three boundaries, and the street appeal would benefit from a front fence to help secure the fur-babies and children in future.
Sweet dreams are made of these:
– Ripe for renovation
– Oversized lounge, dining and sunroom
– Double carport + single garage
– Air-con + built-ins in two bedrooms
– Ceiling fans throughout
– 637m2 land
– Large covered entertaining space
