This great old girl has been in the family for almost 60 years and has raised a family of 5 that have plenty of good old stories and neighbourhood history to tell, and this solid old home has been thru and seen them all! Sitting upon a flat and flood free piece of Aussie 1065m2 gold, she is fenced on 3 sides and already has 2 driveway crossovers concreted into the street guttering that could indicate it’s future development options if you want to check with the lovely folks at Ipswich City Council. The home offers 2 great sized bedrooms, an updated bathroom with toilet, lounge room long enough to practice your line dancing techniques, a combined family/dining room and a kitchen that you could swing 2 cats in! The kitchen has 2 pantry’s and plenty of room for the big fridge whilst the separate laundry with 2nd toilet adjoining it are both located at the rear of the home. A covered front porch has seen a lot of foot traffic throughout it’s life, a new electric hot water system keeps the water boiling and a garden shed at the rear of the home takes care of the lawn and garden equipment.

Now although she is much loved, this home is tired…worn out…and has the cracks and wobbly legs that you would expect of most 60 year olds! This home is not for those who watch the home reno shows and think that a splash of paint and a new Bunnings kitchen will miraculously convert it to an awesome rental property with potential development options! It is possible that she could meet the front of a bulldozer, become 250 recycled Ikea coffee tables or supply your family with years of winter firewood. If you are a tradie with plenty of tradesperson connections and a willingness to pump time and money into the home then it could be a good option. Another option could be to put a removal home onto this supersized block, or build a new large family home within a stellar street and still have room for a big shed! Obviously my ideas are subject to ICC approval and they can advise on splitting the block and possibly building 2 new homes, as has already happened a few times within the street.

Whatever you decide to do with this property, you will find that it’s location is super convenient being that you can walk to the newly upgraded Raceview Tavern, a day care facility, school, Raceview Shopping Centre, bus stop, 7-11 service centre, vet, doctors surgery and much more! You can also drive to the CBD, medical precinct, Uni and Highway access within just a few minutes!
