This weatherboard cottage presents the perfect opportunity to break into the prized Geelong West market.

Soaring ceilings and pressed metal ceilings add character to the interiors, which invite you to move straight in or update to create your dream home (STCA). The central living room flows into the dining/kitchen zone, which features a walk-in pantry and cooking appliances. Parents will appreciate that the kitchen sink overlooks the backyard, so they can keep an eye on the kids playing outside. Three bedrooms (one with a decorative fireplace) are serviced by the bathroom, while the laundry and separate toilet complete the layout. Ducted heating and a split-system air conditioner provide year-round comfort.

The backyard creates a tranquil setting, surrounded by a fernery and edible garden. Ample off-street parking is a standout feature, with the driveway providing backyard vehicle access for boat/caravan storage. The double garage creates the ultimate workshop for tradies, complete with a wood heater and air conditioner.

This tightly-held pocket places you within walking distance to the shopping precincts of both Shannon Avenue and Pakington Street. Local cafes and Newtown Primary School are also a short stroll away, while Newtown's private colleges are within close reach. Enjoy easy access to the Geelong CBD and Geelong Train Station.

Entering the property market for the first time in 44 years, you'll need to act swiftly to avoid disappointment.

Potential rent return at $400 per week. To discuss in further detail please contact Emily Reid on 0477 922 969.
