13 Austral Crescent, Baxter VIC 3911

Centrally located in an up and coming neighborhood where lifestyle amenities include a choice of schools in arms' reach, Baxter Park nearby and the brilliant bonus of ready access to Peninsula Link for a hassle-free commute, this three-bedroom starter home represents a fantastic opportunity for young buyers to take that all important first step on the property ladder.

Offering unquestionable scope to value-add with a lick of paint and some savvy interior updates, there is also potential here for handy rental returns in the short term courtesy of existing tenants keen to stay on.

Further adding to the appeal and widening the interest net to include developers - plans are available for a future three-bedroom dwelling to be constructed behind the original home (STCA). This could be a fantastic project for a young builder to cut his teeth on with the bonus of a comfortable family home on the work site.

As it stands, the home on 618sqm (approx.) features a comfortable main lounge complemented by the open-plan kitchen meals area with easy care floating floors.

The simple kitchen has the basics covered with an upright cooker and good storage but will respond well to a cheap and cheerful update.

Accommodation is by way of three good-sized bedrooms, the main featuring his and hers built-in robes, while the original bathroom is quite serviceable with a separate bath and shower.

A hardworking laundry and separate toilet completes this value-for-money package.

Outside there is ample space to add a garage or carport, while extras include gas ducted heating, large backyard and ample off-street parking.
