Last Listing description (May 2026)

Classic charm and future potential on dual access block

Privately tucked behind tall hedging, this classic weatherboard home delivers plenty of charm today along with exciting scope to add further value over time. Polished timber floors, decorative ceilings and an ornamental brick fireplace bring warmth and character, while the opened-up lounge, dining and kitchen layout creates a far more connected and spacious feel through the heart of the home. Three bedrooms share a neat shower bathroom, with a second w.c. positioned with the external laundry for added convenience.

Outside, the wrap-around deck and level backyard create an easy space for entertaining, kids and pets, while the current tenant returning $695pw adds immediate investment appeal. Looking ahead, there's potential to modernise the kitchen and bathroom, rebuild the double garage with a future studio above, or explore granny flat or dual occupancy options (STCA) thanks to dual access via Popran Lane and the 455sqm block.

This sought-after pocket of Adamstown puts lifestyle front and centre. Adamstown Bowling Club is just 220m away, Merewether Golf Club 500m from home, while Adamstown Park, Bondwood caf and Local Customs are all an easy stroll away.
