In a suburb of colourful character and history, Argyle (19 Forbes St) was built in 1908. Framed by the magnolias in the front yard, the smell of fresh paint lingers after its recent makeover; with new floor coverings and window dressings it will be ready to move in. You can do a little or you can do a lot to start your own story.

Natural light abounds the home, with all the rooms light and bright. A small study off the entry is ideal for a quiet retreat from the nearby living area or has the potential to become an ensuite for the main. There is a gas connection for heating and there is also gas for cooking in the kitchen. While the kitchen is a little knocked around, its a great size and platform to work with. The bathroom is servicable and is something you can either upgrade straight away or when you can afford to. The piers have been redone at some stage of the home’s life, elevating the home slightly.

Taking advantage of the aspect at the rear, you can enjoy the winter sun with your morning cuppa. Once the weather warms, the private inground pool, a rarity in Carrington, will have you the envy of the neighbourhood. On the topic of scarcity, how about the garage from the rear lane? There is also potential to create another parking space at the front from Forbes Street.
