Neat 70's brick veneer makes a great first home, investment or desirable downsizer. It's perfectly positioned a short walk to Kennington Reservoir, Strathdale Community Park, schools, LaTrobe University, Strath and Kennington Village shopping centres with public transport at the end of the street for easy commuting to the city centre. The home offers comfortable accommodation with three bedrooms, large open-plan, gas-heated living, dining and kitchen, bathroom and laundry. The kitchen includes gas cooking, walk-in pantry, island breakfast bar and ample cabinetry. All three bedrooms have built-in robes and ceiling fans (split system a/c to main) and all enjoy direct access to the family bathroom with spa bath, vanity and new shower while 5.2Kw solar power helps with power bills. Outdoor living and entertaining is well catered for with a sunny, paved area in the middle of the very private backyard and a shaded side area for hot summer days. Landscaping includes pretty rock garden beds, ferneries and a mix of citrus and stone fruit trees. Sitting pretty on the high side of the street on a lot approximately 715m², the property includes double carport, garden shed and a free standing brick studio/home office/teen retreat in the back yard. With gated street access, it would suit a home business eg. tutoring, massage, hair dressing etc. This well-built home offers a red hot opportunity – it comes with position, presence and potential plus.
