Must be great buying at this price for a large character home on an established section, overlooking a favourite rugby ground and with views to the harbour and city. Loved by the same family for over 40 years, this home needs some new life and renovations, but the current owner has given the next a huge head start by having extensive electrical work just completed (compliance certificate available) and having new carpet laid throughout.

Further features of this property include character ceilings, timber panelling, four double bedrooms and a massive upper level – perfect for a rumpus, pool and bar space, your own rugby grandstand or an indulgent work from home space, though the stunning views might be a slight distraction.

Internal layout also provides separate kitchen with adjoining dining, separate laundry, separate lounge, front conservatory, main bathroom, with second (gardener’s toilet) accessed from outside and a massive basement and workshop area. The rear garden, with productive vegetable beds, overlooks a native and exotic bush area teeming with birdlife. Off-street park.

Make sure you add this property to your list.
