'As Is, Where Is' opportunities are becoming rarer and rarer, so when a very liveable bungalow on approx 736sqm (source: Property Guru) of TC2 land in the highly desirable Mersey St, Malvern St and Severn St block becomes available, your instincts should be on fire to buy this superb property immediately!

The property currently offers a 3 bedroom 1930's bungalow, with an extension that opens to a deck then onto the private, leafy rear grounds. In addition, there is a lined (and permitted) sleep-out and a large double modern garage (but without Code Compliance Certificate from the Council).

The current owner/occupier of the last 20 years absolutely loves living here and has made the very hard decision not to repair and stay, so with homes in this tightly held location seldom available, the option to secure this parcel of gold is desirable indeed.

There is a definite opportunity here to repair and enhance the existing home, or use the excellent site and design your own masterpiece. (N.B. All measurements, sizes, sqm sourced from Property Guru and Canterbury Maps - buyers must verify prior to purchase).

Auction Wednesday 31st May, 10:00am at Holmwood Auction Rooms, Ground Floor, 397 - 399 Ilam Road, Ilam (unless sold prior). Property ID: #IM24847
