Imagine living in a modern, near-new home in a great location – and having your best friends next door.
Or maybe it’s your mum and dad in the replica home beside yours – or tenants who are helping you pay your mortgage.
This Douglas Street property comprising two townhouses on one title will appeal to a range of buyers, especially investors with an expected rental return in excess of $1250 per week.
Extended families, or friends and families looking to pool their resources will also see value here. And it’s the ideal set up for buyers looking to live in one and generate income from the other.
The two, three-bedroom, two-bathroom homes were built in 2024 so are essentially “new” and present as such. Looking ahead, this means minimal maintenance costs in the immediate future with the homes having been well constructed.
They sit on a single title (one lot of rates) in a quiet right-of-way location. This is a family-friendly neighbourhood, close to schools, the Kopeopeo shopping centre, Rex Morpeth Park and other town amenities.
Both houses are identical with regard to floor plan. They are quality, low maintenance builds with Colorsteel cladding, double glazing throughout, open plan living, covered decks and a shared driveway.
Being separated by their external access single garages, they enjoy some privacy and a feeling of separation from each other, despite sharing a section.
Internally, the design is one that will work well for a range of buyers, including families.
The open plan living-dining room flows through to a large kitchen at the back of the house that features quality appliances and an abundance of below and above-bench
cupboards along with extensive bench space.
The main bedroom is off the lounge and includes a sizeable walk-in wardrobe
and stylish ensuite. There are two other bedrooms – also generous doubles with fabulous wardrobe storage.
Storage is something that is not lacking in these homes with the laundry also an
impressive size and well-fitted with cupboards and cabinetry.
Completing the home is a family bathroom with shower and bath. The homes are airy, light and very welcoming.
Outside, the grounds have been nicely landscaped and are easy care. There is
plenty of parking available and private outdoor areas around each home but very little grass to mow.
This property is for sale by tender and will not be sold prior. Anyone interested will have to act fast with less than two weeks remaining to get together a suitable offer.
