If your first home wish list includes useful space, practical improvements and room to add your own style, 5 Belmont Avenue deserves a look.

The work you would rather not spend your weekends doing has already been tackled. There is a new roof, fresh paint, a heat pump, a renovated bathroom and a covered deck. Inside, the three-bedroom layout gives you a large lounge, a separate dining area, a galley-style kitchen, a separate laundry, a separate WC and built-in wardrobes in every bedroom. A gas fire adds another cosy option through the cooler months.

There is still scope to update the kitchen, flooring and finishes when time and budget allow. That makes this a smart starting point for buyers who want to move in, settle down and create value at their own pace.

Outside, the fully fenced 825m² freehold section gives children, pets and gardeners room to spread out. There is generous off-street parking, a carport and a large double garage. Two adjoining utility rooms/possible sleep-outs add useful hobby or storage space. Buyers should satisfy themselves as to their permitted use.

There is an array of mature fruit trees and the 825 sqm section is fully fenced for children or pets and situated in a quiet cul-de-sac. Amenities are so handy with both primary and secondary schools and shops within a short walk away, along with recreational grounds for the sports and fitness enthusiast nearby.

The vendors are relocating and the property is ready for its next chapter.
