First home buyers, downsizers, renovators, investors and everyone in between, this one is definitely for you. Single level, brick construction, simple layout, full of original mid-century features and in good condition on a mostly flat 622sqm block of land … it doesn't take the team from The Block to figure out that this picturesque property offers loads of opportunity.
If you are an investor, you could rent it out exactly as it is but for anyone wanting a home they can put their own stamp on, this one will be easily transformed. New paint and flooring alone will produce a remarkable result. Definitely come ready to be inspired!
With the house positioned toward the front of a mostly flat 622sqm block, the back yard is private, and comes with plenty of established gardens. A great place for kids to run around and plenty of opportunity for the green fingered. But of course, let's not forget that a flat block in Kenmore is rare and while it pains me to suggest that the house could be removed, this block presents a great opportunity to build a lovely and large new home.
Centrally located close to both the Kenmore Village and Kenmore Plaza commercial precincts and yet within a very tranquil, leafy street with minimal through traffic, this is absolutely what Kenmore does best.
No matter what your property plans, this one has to be seen to fully appreciate the opportunity. Just make sure you are quick, entry level buying this good in Kenmore doesn't come up too often!
