Mid-Century Charm with Big Rostrevor Potential

Tucked away in one of Rostrevor's quietest foothills cul-de-sacs, this architecturally designed solid brick residence delivers a rare combination of space, serenity, and long-term potential. Built in 1976 by an owner-builder and set on a generous allotment of approximately 610 sqm, 42 Rita Avenue presents an exciting opportunity to comfortably enjoy today, lease as a smart interim investment, or renovate, redesign, or rebuild (STCC) in a tightly held location.

Privately positioned within a neighbourly enclave, the flexible four-bedroom floorplan unfolds across expansive living zones. A light-filled formal lounge flows through to a separate dining area, while a spacious kitchen with casual meals forms the central hub of the home. A welcoming family room and expansive sunroom, complete with a combustion heater/wood oven and abundant natural light, provide versatile spaces for everyday living and entertaining, with a seamless connection to a small alfresco area and established private gardens.

The home's enduring quality is evident in its solid brick construction inside and out, generous proportions, substantial cellar and storage options, and practical inclusions throughout. Accommodation is well considered, with a generous master bedroom featuring an ensuite, three additional bedrooms serviced by a central family bathroom, a functional laundry, and multiple utility or hobby rooms with running water. A long driveway leads to a secure double or tandem garage under the main roof, while sunbathed front and rear lawns, fruit trees, and leafy garden outlooks enhance the sense of peace and privacy.

Lifestyle and location truly seal the appeal. Leafy reserves, parks, and walking trails are just moments from your door. A solid, well-maintained foothills home offering comfort, character, and exciting future promise - this is a rare opportunity in a tightly held Rostrevor address.
