RENOVATE OR REDEVELOP?

Not for the faint hearted, this weatherboard home is in need of some serious TLC and would be ideal for someone looking for a reno project. Not just paint and carpet, we're talking major reno! Alternatively knock it down and build a new home or a couple of units like they did next door (STCA) to meet the growing demand for modern low maintenance homes in East Gippsland.

Within close proximity to the Bairnsdale Aquatic & Recreation Centre, Hospital, Secondary and Primary Schools and the monthly East Gippsland Farmers Market, the position will offer great appeal to future home buyers and tenants wanting to have Bairnsdale amenities and/or their workplace just a stone's throw away.

The floor plan comprises entry hall, two bedrooms down the right side (one currently the billiard room) with a central bathroom at the end of the hall, front left lounge room leading through to the kitchen/meals, out to the built-in back porch with water feature down the back door when it rains. To the left is the laundry leading to the toilet at the back corner, and to the right is the store room/study with "decorative ceiling". In fact there are genuine decorative ceilings in the lounge and hallway so the decision will be – do you retain the character, polish the floor boards and do it up, or pull it down and start again?

Contact Adam Bloem at Elders Real Estate Bairnsdale on 0400 803 653 to arrange your inspection. Anyone allergic to cats is to enter at their own risk – they've moved on, but we don't think it's been vacuumed for many years!
