This is a home that has easily withstood the rough-and-tumble of family living for the past 50 years.

With pretty much a blank canvas to work with, there is plenty of scope for the handy home renovator to turn this original weatherboard home into a comfortable and stylish masterpiece.

Some new paint and floor coverings have already given the interior a fresh, bright feel, especially in the living room which features large windows that capture the distant water view.

For winter warmth there’s a wood heater, as well as the recent inclusion of a split system air-conditioner, giving year-round comfort.

Set on 711 m2 block, there is scope for multiple dwellings (stca) with the attraction being the prized location, only footsteps to the local park, the Midway Tavern, local shops and bus stop.

With a lack of rental properties available for quality tenants, this home is a real purse pleaser for the savvy investor, with an expected rental return of approximately $375-$385 per week.
