Every now and again an absolute pearler of an opportunity comes along in Darwin’s real estate market and this unit in Nightcliff is just screaming out for someone to recognise the capital growth potential.

First home owners or investors who are up for some serious renovation work this is for you. There’s no doubt it needs work it was built in 1965 and has been rented for 15 years.

The dcor is reflective of the era it was constructed. But give it a facelift (a bit of botox!) and you could turn it over for a quick profit or throw it back on the market as a rental that would be snapped up in our high demand marketplace.

The bedrooms are generous not like some modern day units where you can hardly fit a bed and tables. There’s plenty of room for queen-size beds or bigger in the main plus bedsides or an entire suite if you want! Built-in robes exist in both bedrooms as well. The lounge is situated at the front of the unit beside the kitchen. There’s an existing breakfast bench but once you’ve replaced it, there’d be still plenty of space to add on a funky fold-out table to the new one? The ideas just keep coming!!

The bathroom has a separate shower and toilet and the existing tiles on the wall of the shower could actually be retained because they’ve come back into vogue now anyway! Come equipped with your tool box, paintbrush and anything or anyone else you can find to pitch in but this one is a hidden little jewel. It’s location is spot on walking distance to schools, shops, bus stops, larger shopping complexes and the beachfront is only a block away.

There’s not much in Nightcliff that rents for under $340 a week at the moment, so once you’ve spent the time and money doing it up, sit back and reap the rewards.
