Deadline sale closing 14th May 2026 at 1.00pm (unless sold prior)
If you're looking for polished and perfect....this isn't it.
If you're looking for something with character, a bit of humour, and real potential - you'll want to take a look.
Tucked away at the rear of the section, this 1930s standalone home has already had the important work done over the years, including re-piling, re-plumbing and re-wiring. What's left is your chance to roll up your sleeves and make it your own.
Inside, things have taken a slightly different direction:
- One bedroom has been converted into a workshop
- The lounge has also had a turn as a workshop
- It's been set up to suit a very practical lifestyle
But there's more here than first meets the eye:
- 82m² floor area with high stud ceilings creating a sense of space
- Shower over bath setup
- Original style cast iron pot belly in the lounge
- Fully fenced section with a large backyard
- Garden shed for extra storage
- In-ground swimming pool (currently not in use, but ready for revival)
- Two off-street parks plus a carport
- Privately positioned at the rear of the section
The current RV is $630,000, and while the home is rough around the edges, the bones and location offer genuine upside.
This is a property for someone who can see past how it looks today and recognise what it could become.
Whether you're a tradie, a tinkerer, or someone keen for a project, there's real opportunity here to add value and create something unique.
It's not trying to be perfect...but it might be exactly what you've been looking for.
