Homes in Short Street don't come up that often (the residents there usually never want to leave) and this one ticks all the boxes - good size block, close to town, no neighbors at the back (and never will be) and sensational value for money.
This is a solid home in a great location! Kempsey Kindy is two doors down, schools are just around the corner and the backyard is big enough for kids swing sets, trampolines, maybe even a pool! And you won't believe the citrus trees growing in the backyard - mandarin and bush lemons - trust me you will never buy them from the shops again!
The house has lovely high ceilings, two big generous bedrooms and a sleep-out. The outside of the house is clad, so a quick gurney every 12 months and it will look like it is freshly painted! There are lovely deep red floorboards (maybe Red Mahogany or Rosewood - the kind of timber you can't buy anymore) under the carpets and they would look amazing polished up. There is character and value that can be unleashed in this property with some very minimal effort.
And best of all, it's only 2 blocks from the wonderful West Kempsey shops - a simple stroll really!!
And, all of this for under $200,000. Amazing.
Basically you need to come and see it for yourself... First to see will buy I'd say. Especially when you can rent it out for $260/wk:
- 746sqm block with side access.
- 2 blocks from town shopping/services.
- 2 generous bedrooms + sleep-out.
- 1 bathroom, internal laundry, 1 garage.
- The exterior of the house and eaves are clad.
- Slow combustion fire, reverse cycle air conditioning.
- Excellent roof.
- Lovely, peaceful outlook at the back of the property.
The citrus trees are full of fruit are waiting to be picked, so get in quick it won't last long. Call us anytime, any day to inspect.
