First home buyers or those with a limited budget should consider this!

703sqm of RMD zoned land on the edge of the CBD is the underlying long term value here, and a sure safety net for your capital investment. In the meantime, while the developers procrastinate, there is a most livable, very cute cottage circa 1880, crying out for caring new owners. 'Once upon a time' this has been a much-loved property with a 'fairy tale' garden brimming with colourful plantings, climbing roses, raised vege beds, and a plum tree!

In classic cottage style there is a central hallway dividing four rooms and then a lean-to at the rear. Perfectly comfortable for a couple as it is, there is untapped potential to extend into the long narrow site and create more room for a family. A fully lined studio stands close to the house offering possibilities for a home business or hobby. Numerous other sheds scattered around the garden have served as potting shed, workshop, and woodshed. There is even a glasshouse (as is) and a functioning outdoor privy!

This is a really smart option for those in a modest price range struggling to get a foothold in the market. And what's more, our sellers have demanded this be SOLD before Christmas!
