2/12 The Avenue, Hermit Park is a 2 bedroom, 1 bathroom Unit with 1 parking spaces and was built in 1976. The property has a land size of 35m2 and floor size of 74m2. While the property is not currently for sale or for rent, it was last sold in March 2023.
Positioned in one of Hermit Park's most convenient pockets, 2/12 The Avenue presents a smart opportunity for buyers seeking value, location and long-term practicality in a smaller, low-maintenance unit complex.
Currently tenanted, this neat two-bedroom unit offers immediate holding income and broad appeal for investors, first-home buyers and buyers looking for an affordable entry point into a consistently popular central suburb. The complex itself is simple, but the fundamentals are strong: a central Hermit Park address, low body corporate costs, a garage and an updated kitchen already in place.
Inside, the unit is practical, comfortable and easy to maintain. The open-plan living and dining area is light and functional, with tiled flooring, air-conditioning and direct connection to the balcony. The updated kitchen adds immediate appeal, featuring stone-look benchtops, a breakfast bar, stainless steel splashback, overhead storage and good everyday usability.
Both bedrooms are well proportioned, with the main bedroom offering air-conditioning and natural light. The bathroom is neat and generous in size, with a shower-over-bath, separate vanity area and adjoining internal laundry, giving the layout a level of practicality that works well for tenants or future owner-occupiers.
The garage is a valuable inclusion, adding secure parking and extra storage potential beneath the unit. In this price point, that added usability is a genuine advantage, particularly for investors wanting a property that remains practical and appealing to tenants.
The smaller complex is a key part of the value story. With fewer residences, a straightforward layout and low body corporate costs, this is the kind of property that makes sense for buyers wanting a simple, affordable and income-producing asset without unnecessary overheads.
Hermit Park continues to perform strongly due to its central convenience. From here, you are close to Castletown, the CBD, schools, public transport, major road links, medical facilities and everyday shopping. It is a location that tenants understand and owner-occupiers appreciate because it keeps life easy.
