Here's one for the big picture thinkers who can spot a sweet opportunity when it presents itself! Currently housing an all-original 3-bedroom brick lowset with largely blank canvas surrounds, 143 Lyons Road is a classic 'fixer upper' or perhaps the site of your dream residence (STCC) - a place that takes full advantage of a large 710sqm (approx.) site with excellent proximity to public transport, parks, schools and shops.
The existing home with its single garage is a modest affair, but with solid bones, creature comforts like A/C, and a family-friendly floorplan that could be reimagined entirely by exchanging well-worn fixtures, fittings and furnishings with more contemporary equivalents.
3 sizeable bedrooms run down one side, serviced by a retro-tiled bathroom that will resonate with purists but could be stripped back and refurbished to suit your vibe. Same goes with the kitchen which, while fully functional and loaded with moulded solid timber cabinetry, could easily become a modern gourmet's hub. The adjacent dining area extends into an air-conditioned lounge and a lengthy alfresco verandah runs along the back.
If you've been looking for a place you can shape to your own tastes, either with a major or modest renovation - depending how far you want to take things - 143 Lyons Road could be your lucky last inspection! Equally, if you've been chasing a site to build your dream home on (STCC) this is an oh-so-sweet location on the doorstep of handy buses to get you around town, scenic nature walks, and quality local shopping and schools.
