The opportunities are endless

Situated in a quiet cul-de-sac in Melba is this much loved 4 bedroom family home.

Beautifully set back from the street on a huge 922sqm flat block, this property offers endless opportunities for an astute investor or a place to create new memories for a first home buyer or family.

The local playground and primary school is within easy walking distance, with Melba shops a stone's throw away, and Belconnen town centre a mere 10-minute drive.

With a leafy outlook in every direction, the extended front porch is the perfect place to sit and watch the world go by.

Inside, the owner has kept the house in original condition. If you love a 70s vibe, you won't want to change a thing. Otherwise, it's a blank canvas for a keen renovator with high-quality brick construction, lots of light and an intuitive layout.

There are multiple living areas, including a front living room featuring picture windows with views over the front garden, and a separate family room with direct access to the rear yard. The family room adjoins a huge kitchen with ample storage, extended sink, tiled splashback and meals area.

The master bedroom features an ensuite and over-sized built-in robe, and there are 3 additional good-sized bedrooms plus a main bathroom with a bath.

Out the back you'll find a covered patio which overlooks the expansive, low maintenance backyard. A lock-up double garage offers plenty of extra storage space, and the side gate ensures easy access and ample off-street parking for cars, trailers, boats and even a caravan.
