Property Description

Set in a quiet cul-de-sac and full of untapped potential, this solid 1970s Summerhill Stone unit—front one of just two—offers an exciting opportunity for first-home buyers, investors, or DIYers on the hunt for a smart project. With a motivated vendor and a short call deadline, this is a golden opportunity that won’t last long.

Inside, you’ll find generous proportions and a layout that just makes sense. While the home is tidy and completely liveable, it’s ready for a modern refresh. Think original kitchen and bathroom—functional, but crying out for a fresh touch. With solid bones, all that’s needed is a little love and vision to bring this home back to life.

The spacious living area flows into a sun-drenched conservatory, creating the perfect spot to unwind. Two good-sized bedrooms come complete with built-in wardrobes, and there's the bonus of a separate toilet, separate laundry, internal-access single garage, and off-street parking. The low-maintenance section keeps things simple, making it ideal as a first home, rental, or lock-and-leave.

And then there’s the location. Just minutes from Northlands Mall, Northlink Shopping Centre, the Graham Condon Recreation & Sport Centre, and public transport—plus a quick drive to the CBD and arterial routes—everything you need is on your doorstep. Love cafes, movies, and weekend strolls? You’re spoiled for choice with Merivale, St James Park, and Hoyts Northlands all within easy reach.

Fully insured and vacant, this home is ready when you are. Move in, rent out, or renovate—whatever your plans, this property is a blank canvas with serious upside.

Bring your builder, bring your ideas—and act fast! Homes like this, in locations like this, are snapped up quickly.
