The phrase renovator's dream' has been tirelessly pedaled by the real estate industry over the years. Hardly an inspiring term, it conjures up the image of a dilapidated, asbestos-ridden shanty, and anything but a dream. In an effort to return some dignity to this real estate clich, Ray White welcomes you to 222 Osburn Drive - a true renovator's dream.
Any experienced home renovator will know the costs and dangers of extending, generally preferring to detonate than renovate. Spaciously designed and privately built with double garage underneath, this home already boasts the perfect footprint for improvement without the need to extend. All that's missing is a clever designer and some elbow grease, and this will soon be the ideal family home.
For those looking to procure a positively geared investment, its RZ2 zoning means there's 930 m2 of prime real estate to develop, with the potential of a garage granny flat conversion or new dwelling altogether. The corner block location allows added planning permissions and the potential for a second dwelling with the address "1 Brownless Street".
With 140 m2 of living space, the sheer size of the internal spaces really must be seen to be believed. Currently configured in an L-shaped living and dining area with separate kitchen and meals area, the main living spaces can be remodelled any number of ways. The home also comes equipped with ducted gas heating.
The master bedroom is bright and spacious, enjoying a huge walk-in robe and private en suite. The master enjoys privacy from the remaining bedrooms, separated by the living spaces. Bedrooms two and three are far larger than normal, both with built-in robes and easy access to the main bathroom and separate toilet.
The back yard is secured by colorbond fencing, and offers an in-ground swimming pool and adjacent entertaining area, as well as plenty of green space. The double garage comes with a large laundry area, plus extra under-house storage. The garage is well set up for a home workshop, with three-phase power already equipped. In addition to the garaging, there is ample off-street parking out front.
This location offers all the benefits of life in Macgregor; a short walk to Kippax fair (soon to be redeveloped into full shopping mall) as well as Macgregor Primary School, parks and reserves.
