Update at Your Leisure - It's a Cracker!

Find potential and promise in the perfect position thanks to this light and bright two bedroom single level unit set away from the road at the rear of a boutique group of only three. Located in arguably one of the prettiest streets in the area where majestic oak trees form a shady canopy, this solid brick 70s Colonial-style unit is an exciting opportunity for young buyers and investors to get into a locale loaded with first-class amenities. It is also a perfect foundation on which to make some quality, contemporary updates.

A welcoming front porch opens into a carpeted bay-windowed lounge and adjacent dining area which flows through to a functional kitchen with stainless steel elevated oven, gas cooktops and pantry. With room for easy meals on separate bench space, the kitchen is a practical space and continues out through the laundry with access to the very low maintenance rear North-East facing courtyard.

The passage leads down to the two well-proportioned bedrooms - both offering fitted wardrobes and sharing the central bathroom featuring bath, walk-in shower, vanity, heat lamp, and the convenience of a separate w.c.

A roller-doored carport with separate gated driveway off Roslind Avenue (offering up to two additional off-street carparks) rounds off this neat package.

While there is scope for some renovation to bring it right up to date - perhaps a new kitchen and bathroom - don't be too quick to overlook the value in the unit's existing presentation, positioned for ultimate ease - literally steps to bus stops, and an easy stroll for coffee and daily supplies at the local Aldi.

Appointed with:-
• Ducted evaporative cooling system
• Linen cupboard
• Secure external window grills
• Front & rear porch entry
• Rear garden shed
• Privately set at the end of the Group

Enjoy your daily exercise at beautiful Kensington Garden Reserve (a 10-minute walk) - where you can play bowls, tennis, watch the cricket or football, work out, relax by the lake, or have a picnic or barbecue - it's all there! Alternatively, the Burnside Swimming Centre and Norwood Pool are both
close by for summertime enjoyment. A quick 12-minute commute into the CBD, vibrant Norwood Parade and Burnside Village are just moments away, and bus stops are easily accessible for a stress-free work commute. Fabulous cafes, restaurants, hotels and boutique shopping are all within close proximity, together with a choice of top quality schools and colleges.

This potential-rich unit with scope to make it your own, is a perfect first-entry property purchase, or an excellent investment for long-term returns.

A life of convenience awaits!
