The Details
About the property
Quietly positioned and ideally located, this home is set in a tree-lined street oozing with character it will be sure to impress that first home buyer or investor. Offering 3 large bedrooms with BIR (Master Ensuite/WIR), open living/dining areas and separate bathroom.
Tremendously located, families will definitely enjoy the gentle stroll to Buckingham Reserve and Kororoit Creek trails. Only minutes away from Public transport, Local schools, Cafes/Shopping Centers, Cinemas, Medical Centers and access to Melbourne CBD just down one road.
The layout was good with an open plan kitchen and living. The house was fine it just needed a good clean. Could also do with paint and new carpets, however if you were just going to rent back to Asians I wouldn’t bother. The house had an overpowering ‘Asian’ smell.
There was an ok courtyard, it was private and had a nice well maintained garden. There were no apparent cracks in internal or external walls
