Needing some love - opportunity to renovate in desirable location

Welcome to 17 Rusden Street, Kelvin Grove, this traditional workers' cottage is ripe for renovation. Located in the heart of Kelvin Grove, this home is perfect for a small family or a couple looking to relax in this inner-city location.

Through the front entrance you will find a spacious living area, which features high ceilings, timber floors and VJ walls. Two generous sized bedrooms come off the living area, one with a walk-in wardrobe. Both bedrooms have ceiling fans and the living area has air-conditioning. The main bathroom is on this level.

Journeying downstairs you will find another bedroom, toilet and laundry. The second open living space is a great size, with an opportunity to provide plenty of room for living, dining and a study area. The kitchen is galley style and features an electric cooktop, oven and dishwasher. Off the kitchen area is a deck, providing a lovely area to relax and enjoy your morning coffee or evening glass of wine. From the deck, wide stairs lead you down to the back yard, which is a great size and offers further opportunity to extend the floor plan.

Just 3km from the Brisbane CBD, the property provides a wealth of amenities. There is easy access to Kelvin Grove State College (Prep to Year 12), Kelvin Grove QUT Campus, Urban Village, parks, shops, restaurants, public transport and a stone's throw away from Red Hill and Paddington.
