Positioned on a substantial 680sqm (approx.) block with a wide frontage, behind a low breeze block fence (the kind that's all the rage with the retro-fans), 11 Martindale Street might appear a modest offering at first sight, but there's plenty of scope for improvement or development here with its drawcards being a highly walkable location and the potential to reap solid rental returns as is or post-renovation or extension, and even to rebuild a more modern home (STCC).
Right now, the offering is a basic single-level brick home with up to 4 bedrooms, a combined lounge and meals area, functional kitchen, and bathroom with space-saving shower-over tub combo - all embracing a central covered verandah that opens onto to a flat, grassy yard. With a trio of entry points, the kitchen is a free-flowing space and, while simple in its fit-out, there's plenty of space, clear counter-tops, storage, and electric cooker/oven.
Three of the bedrooms are carpeted with some form of closet space, be it a built-in robe or, in the case of the one with A/C that also opens to the verandah - a big storeroom/walk-in closet. If you don't need 4, run with 3 and make the big back room (just over 29sqm) a rumpus. Sitting off the meals area, this versatile space is fan-cooled, stone-paved, and extends onto the verandah. Elsewhere there's a standalone laundry, a shed, and single carport down the side.
From this leafy street, it's an easy wander to a couple of local primary schools, a playground and waterside trails at nearby Paddocks Reserve, and city-bound buses, while a range of grocery and specialty shopping centres, big and small, are easily reached with a short drive. This could be a savvy start to your property journey and one that only gets better with time!
