This is the sort of property the pundits have in mind when they talk about investing in bricks and mortar. A solid brick home with terracotta tiled roof set in a quiet, leafy street, an easy walk to Highett’s shops and railway station and Southland.

On a block of 309sqm, the front lawn feels very private behind a high fence, with a footpath running up to the front porch. With polished boards and 9′ ceilings throughout the home, the front lounge has picture rails and gas wall heater. The bathroom is brand new and the old-style kitchen is clean and neat with gas stove and room for you to sit around the kitchen table. The rear courtyard is concrete paved for easy maintenance. Importantly, this property is on its own title with no body corporate. There is off-street parking for two cars.
