8 Hodgkinson Street, Kennington VIC 3550

Every now and then a classic renovator comes along that will stand the test of time, like this sweet Cal bungalow on the city fringe.
The cute and quirky home has potential in spades for first home buyers, renovators or investors with three bedrooms, gas-heated lounge, central dining/living, compact and quaint kitchen, separate bathroom and laundry.
Old fashioned goodness flourishes from the classic front porch with planter box to the high decorative ceilings and cornice with lead-light glazing to the front windows and picture rails. The original kitchen includes a gas cooker, dishwasher, limited bench space but good storage.
The bathroom includes a shower over a claw foot bath and updated vanity with a second shower found in the laundry.
Outside, a large concrete paved area provides a great setting for outdoor living area under the canopy of some big shady trees while a side driveway leads to the single garage/workshop and a chicken coop in the corner.
The 579 (approx)m² allotment has space for a house extension, new shedding etc or just continue to enjoy the private yard where there's room for kids and pets to play ball.
Perfectly located in a quiet Kennington street, it's an easy 5 minute walk to the CBD, supermarket and train station.
It's a winner for the beginner, an easy fix for the DIYer or a secure investment currently let to an excellent long-term tenant who treats it like his own and would like to stay.
