Renovate, extend or build on this large block of approximately 840 sq.m. in a superb location minutes to Dickson and tram!

Move straight into this freshly presented house while you decide how to turn it into your dream home. Renovate, extend or build, the choice is yours.

The home is situated in a peaceful, tree lined street where much renewal is underway, just a short walk to cafes, shops and restaurants in Downer and Dickson, a lovely park with a playground and a light rail stop!

The home occupies a large, level block of approximately 840 m2 amidst shady gardens with a number of fruit trees.

The interior has been refreshed in neutral white and quality carpet features through the lounge and bedrooms.

An original glass front door opens to the entry, leading to the spacious eat-in kitchen, bathed in light from the large, timber framed windows. These have been well maintained throughout the home. The kitchen is equipped with an upright electric stove and there is a slimline electric wall heater in the meals area.

The generous, light filled lounge features full length windows to the northerly aspect, framing a private outlook over the rear garden. Sunlight will pour in over the cooler months and it is easy to imagine a sliding door opening to a large rear entertaining deck. There is an electric wall heater, and soft carpet in excellent condition adds to comfort.

The spacious master and second bedroom also enjoy the north aspect, and all three offer a private garden outlook.

The bathroom features a bathtub with a shower, and there is a separate w/c.
A grapevine covered pergola shelters a large entertaining area in the rear garden, where shrubs and trees provide complete privacy. These include a mandarin and two fig trees, while a bountiful crop of grapes covers the entertaining area.

The garage has a lock-up store at the rear, a roller door, lighting and power.
The large level garden offers plenty of space for an extension or deck, or for the new build of your dreams!

From the fabulous location, a short stroll across the oval will take you to coffee at Downer or the vibrant Dickson centre. Many sought after schools, Dickson swimming pool and many other sporting facilities, nature trails on Mt. Ainslie and the Farmers' Market are all within easy reach, and it is a smooth trip into the City centre on light rail!

Subject to planning regulations and approvals, recent zoning changes may allow for formal subdivision into two blocks with separate titles.
