Description
If you’ve been waiting for an affordable, low-risk entry into the market - this is it.
Positioned just outside the four avenues in sought-after Edgeware, 1/550 Barbadoes Street offers the kind of location that underpins long-term value. Local shops are on the corner, the CBD is minutes away, and strong tenant demand in this pocket makes it a proven performer.
Recently priced to meet today’s market, this is a sharp opportunity for first-home buyers wanting to get on the ladder, investors seeking solid returns, or downsizers after an easy lock-up-and-leave.
As a street-facing end unit, the townhouse enjoys extra natural light and additional outdoor space - a real advantage over many similar properties. The 78m² layout is practical and functional across two levels.
Downstairs features a sunny living and dining zone, a tidy kitchen, and a slider to the front courtyard. It’s low maintenance as is, with scope to further enhance and add value over time. A garden shed provides bonus storage.
Upstairs, two generous bedrooms with built-in wardrobes are serviced by a shared bathroom. Double glazing and a heat pump ensure year-round comfort, while the overall presentation offers the opportunity to modernise gradually and capitalise.
An off-street car park directly beside the front door adds everyday convenience - a simple but valuable feature for both owner-occupiers and tenants.
For investors, the central location and easy-care design make for straightforward property management. For first-home buyers, it’s an achievable step into a blue-chip city-fringe address. And for those seeking a lock-and-leave base close to town, it ticks the boxes without overcapitalising.
Opportunities at this price point, in this location, are increasingly rare.
