We need you to use your imagination to see just how fantastic this Kelvin Grove residence could be with a bit of a revamp. We are the first to admit it currently looks a little down on its luck - but what an opportunity to grab a property where all the tough structural work has been done and now all you need to do is make it a Real home (or a fabulous investment).
With over 287sqm of internal space the key question you'll be asking is just what to do with all that room! Live upstairs, rent out downstairs (or vice versa)? Reformat the entire house into a huge family residence? Turn it into 2 units, or shared accommodation? The possibilities are endless!!
Downstairs:
- Six Bedrooms all with built-in all with a wardrobe and basic furniture (Bed, desk, bedside table). Also again you could easily create a large master suite by joining a couple of bedrooms together.
- Two large bathrooms (both with showers) and the potential once again to turn one into an ensuite if required.
- The open-plan living area includes a large modern kitchen which was only put in a few years ago. The sale will include the current furniture in the space.
- Off the living space is direct access to the backyard and an undercover area.
- This level has engineered timber flooring in the living spaces and carpet in the bedrooms.
- This level includes two laundry's - one for upstairs and one for downstairs.
Block:
- Located on a 405sqm block, which is large for the Inner Brisbane precinct.
- The back of the block has a lovely private leafy outlook.
- The front of the block includes off street car parking for 2-3 cars, this space would be great converted into an undercover carport.
- There is access to both levels of the property from the front and back of the house.
