452 Grimshaw Street, Bundoora VIC 3083

This 3 bedroom home which is practically hidden from view by high greenery behind a low brick fence ticks a lot of boxes, particularly for first time buyers or investors. For starters there is the very convenient location just metres from Andrew Place shops and with a stop for the 566 and 902 buses virtually at the front gate. And while we're talking about location, those of you who are concerned about traffic noise associated with Grimshaw Street need not worry because electrically operated and insulated window shutters on the front windows ensure a quiet existence. On the inside there is a choice of bedrooms, two of which have built-in robes and two that have ceiling fans and an updated bathroom with shower over the bath. The living room opens onto the kitchen which has enough space to easily incorporate a dining setting and features a Westinghouse oven and Tudor 4 burner cooktop. While there is potential to improve and add value, the essential comforts of ducted heating and evaporative cooling are in place and there are also smart plantation shutters on every window, solar power (6 panels), a garden shed, fully lined garage plus off-street parking space for 2-3 cars and an unusual bonus, cellar space under the house.

Aside from the previously mentioned benefits of the location, there is the close proximity of Watsonia North Primary School and Loyola College and easy access to Bundoora Square retail precinct, the Aldi store and the no. 86 city bound tram.
