The Home:

Year Built: Originally built in 1962, rebuilt in 1979. Somewhat old school Darwin.
Area Under Title: 1011 square metres. Larger than normal, good size. Room for kids and stuff.
Rental? Around the $850 - $900 value. Will rent quickly if that’s your thing.

Elevated home that is surrounded by extensive tropical gardens. Timber floors, glass louvre windows and garden views create the “feel” that buyers of this type of property are after. It’s relaxed and how you live in the tropics.
Upstairs living/dining area and three bedrooms, and a self-contained one-bedroom ground-level apartment is ideal and will suit many purposes.

- Timber flooring and garden views to open-plan living/dining area
- Renovated kitchen with stylish floor-to-ceiling subway tiling
- Updated modern bathroom with frameless glass corner shower
- Three garden-view upstairs bedrooms; built-in robe to master bed
- New alfresco deck overlooks the property's lush, extensive gardens
- One-bedroom ground-level apartment with kitchen and ensuite
- Large under-house entertaining area with laundry facilities
- Concrete basketball court with hoop; fenced in-ground pool
- Freestanding studio or home business premises located at front
- Double carport; 3.6m x 2.4m shed provides extra storage space

Work to do?
Depends. Totally functional and a great home as it is. Upgrades will only enhance the value moving forward.
Upgrades to the kitchen and bathroom plus another garden-view deck take this quintessentially Darwin tropical home to the next level.

Take the external staircase up to the new (side) deck and enter into the open-plan living/dining area where large banks of glass louvre windows take full advantage of the garden setting.

The kitchen has been renovated with floor-to-ceiling subway tiling that works well and compliments the original timber cabinetry. A freestanding stainless steel stove plus a dishwasher add plenty of modern convenience.

A hallway connects to all three light-filled upstairs bedrooms and the modern main bathroom, and opens onto a second balcony - also with a garden outlook.

Downstairs, the self-contained one-bedroom apartment with a kitchen and bathroom features a private external entry via its own verandah, and opens into the huge under-house entertaining area.

A fenced in-ground pool, alfresco shower and a basketball court with a hoop complete this magnificent tropical playground.
