UNDER CONTRACT. Set at the end of a quiet cul-de-sac and nestled behind well established bushes is this 1950′s, 3 bedroom and 2 bathroom home that offers a host of options. For the canny buyer or the experienced eye, this is ‘blank canvas’ home will appeal to the investor, the potential re-builder, or for that entry-level home into the ‘Garden Suburb’.

As is the home is on 736 sqm with scope to renovate and/or refurbish. With Baltic floorboards, open fireplace, built-in robes, art deco ceilings and cornices, ducted a/c and second bathroom, this home offers an established base upon which to work. Externally there is a pergola and watering system; plus ample garaging and undercover parking (auto roller door) – and one brick structure could be converted to a study or similar. Rear lane access is an added bonus.

You can walk the two minutes to the local school and even less to the local shops/cafe; and two options for bus transport are less than 5 minutes walk. You can change a home – but you can never change the location!

In a suburb that is entirely Heritage Listed because of its character homes, this is one of those few properties that is not a Bungalow. Under the Planning Act only those homes deemed ‘unsafe’ can be demolished and re- built in the Heritage-style. That said, ‘there are ways’ and precedence has been set. Whilst the selling agent can provide no guarantees, it is possible to set a new buyer in the right direction. Let your imagination take hold.

Notwithstanding that this home is pitched at the lower/mid end for Colonel Light Gardens – do not underestimate that this is a home of 3 bedrooms and two bathrooms, the lounge room provides an excellent example of how the home can be refurbished. And the brick garage delivers a ‘studio’ option (or similar). And recently we have been advised that the home has a bore.

A great rental option or invest into the future with an extension option adding real value – let alone the strong growth that Colonel Light Gardens continues to experience.

A home that is surplus to the vendor’s requirements and set for definite sale.
