Here's a property that pays while you plan - a home with original character and genuine scope to add value. Currently tenanted and well maintained, it offers immediate income while presenting a clear renovation canvas for those with vision: renovate, refresh, and reward.
With three bedrooms, a practical open-plan layout and solid bones, it's easy to see where a few smart upgrades could make a real difference. Picture modernised living spaces, an updated kitchen, and refreshed bathrooms to lift both lifestyle and return - ideal for anyone with an eye for improvement or a desire to build equity over time.
Positioned close to schools, shops, and transport, it's an address that suits tenants today and a new owner tomorrow.
The owner's plans are firmly set elsewhere, and their motivation to sell is genuine. This is your moment to secure a property with solid income and exciting upside. For investors, it's a steady performer with room to grow; for home buyers, an affordable start with renovation potential written all over it.
If you see potential where others see 'original', let's talk - this one rewards momentum.
