Does a dual income appeal? Here is outstanding potential for the investor or owner-occupier wanting family close by! In a quiet, leafy location, this duplex home has great street appeal. It comprises a comfortable one bedroom and a spacious two bedroom unit, each light-filled and fully self contained, surrounded by easy-care gardens.
Lightly screened by deciduous trees which shade the gently sloping front garden, this fantastic, privately built duplex home has excellent street appeal. Situated in a peaceful loop street, lined with mature trees and well-tended gardens, it is a property that any resident would enjoy coming home to.
An elevated front terrace leads to each of the two units. On the right, the verandah opens to an inviting, one bedroom unit. This features an open plan living area with large windows, which let in plenty of natural light and frame the restful outlook over gardens. Polished ash flooring extends through the living area and bedroom. This light and airy room has a built-in robe and an elevated, private outlook. The bright kitchen has a surprisingly large benchtop and electric cooking. The laundry leads to the bathroom, which is in excellent condition and has a shower, vanity and w/c, and to the garden.
The front door to Unit 2 opens to a very spacious open plan living area. This well presented, two bedroom home features fresh paint, new carpets and drapes. Large windows overlook the gardens. The light filled kitchen is in good condition and equipped with an upright electric stove. The roomy master bedroom has a built-in robe, as does the second bedroom. Presented in excellent condition, the bathroom has a shower over a bath, a vanity and w/c. The large laundry has a storage cupboard and leads down to the shared rear garden. This grassy area is safely enclosed and attractively screened by a border of shrubs.
A substantial double carport at the side of the home provides parking for both units and a neat pathway leads around to the front verandah, passing by an exotic Mexican bean tree.
The superb and quiet location is just a short walk to playing fields and Kingsford Smith School, which caters for children from Kindergarten to Year 12. Higgins shops and all the facilities of Kippax Fair, as well as the Raiders Club are only a short distance. Belconnen Mall, Fruit Market and Bunnings, Calvary Hospital and University of Canberra are all within easy reach.
This well designed property, in the perfect location, will hold appeal for a wide spectrum of purchasers, from the investor, to those wishing to have self-contained living close by for a family member, or for someone wanting to downsize and live in one unit, while renting the other. It may also be a perfect future home for a family, with the units combined. Both are ready to live in as they are, still allowing scope for anyone wishing to add their personal touch. A fantastic property which offers great flexibility and outstanding potential!
