Simply superb Brindabella and Tuggeranong Valley views, combined with blank canvas potential on a large elevated block in this excellent location with large homes as neighbors. On a clear day, you can actually see all the way to Black Mountain Tower.
Most people won't have been to this separate part of Calwell on the slope of Tuggeranong Hill which consists mainly of larger more expensive homes on large blocks. 8 Purnell Place is an affordable entry level property in this location situated on a 1093m2 block with scope to extend and improve. Set on 3 levels with attached double garage (internal access) there are 4 bedrooms (or 3 with study), main and ensuite bathrooms, and 3 living areas.
High ceilings add to the sense of space in the open plan living and dining area. The kitchen is generous and well set up adjacent to the family room ideal for casual living. The full length timber deck is on the top level and opens from each of the main living areas, the perfect spot to relax and take in the expansive views. The main bedroom with ensuite bathroom is segregated, bedrooms 2 and 3 have access to their own bathroom and toilet, while bedroom 4 (or study) is on the lower level which also incorporates the rumpus room/3rd living area. There's also a sub-floor area which might be developed at a later date.
It's a substantial sloping block that provides room for extension and further development (eg a pool). The hard work in the front and back yard has been done however there is plenty of scope to improve and add your own touches.
The property hasn't been renovated and the realistic pricing, excellent location and magnificent views should protect the investment in improvements which the next owner will make.
