Occupying a full corner site of 835 sqm bordering Thompson Park, this desirable address lays out a feast of opportunities thanks to Mixed Housing Suburban Zoning. Freehold, fully fenced and another F for future development scope, the owner's lapsed architectural plans are also available. This is a property that has broad appeal with developers seeing potential and land bankers holding for long term plans, perhaps retaining the current periodic tenancy (yielding $995 pw). Similarly, a family will see this as a perfect escape for their kids with bonus detached studio that includes an ensuite toilet and small kitchenette.

Set well back from the road, the timeless 1950s mid-century weatherboard dwelling has been modernised over the years and displays some exposed original native timber floors. The open plan living room has both heat pump and open fireplace with rendered cement surround. Sliding doors lead to a large, covered north facing wraparound deck ideal for all weather entertaining and this steps down to landscaped gardens and lawns. An amply glazed dining area flanks the galley kitchen where stainless-steel appliances includes a gas hob and matching benchtops. Three bedrooms include master with deck access also, and all are served by a bathroom with shower over the bath. In the front yard, a privately situated 37 sqm studio workshop has an open plan bedsitting room with ensuite toilet and a small kitchenette wet area. This has potential as a work from home base, gym, hobbies retreat, games room or space for extra family members. Garaging is under the home and offers plenty of additional storage with ample off-street parking for multiple vehicles.

On the border of Ellerslie and close to Panmure Basin, bus stop, train station and SH1 motorway ramps are nearby for a swift city commute and only a short car trip away are Lunn Avenue and Sylvia Park for shopping and eateries. Ignore the overly high CV - our motivated vendors are meeting the market with a realistic mindset for auction day.
