LAST CALL Auction this Saturday 12.00pm

Calling all builders, flippers, investors, budget-minded, or those looking for a weekender. Someone may even want to build a new house here as the section and location are ideal. This former charming two-bedroom weatherboard may be run down and need lots of TLC, but it would be well worth it. Yes, she has an old kitchen, some tatty doors and holes in some walls, but this circa 1930s cottage will be a fantastic project for someone with vision. Both bedrooms and the open-plan living area are a good size. The deck has had the boards replaced, and sunshine pours through the front rooms in winter. A concrete driveway provides easy access and lots of off-street parking.

Located within a short stroll to all that Ostend village offers, including the convenience of the bus stop, and just a few minutes walk to the primary school. This is an amazing opportunity to turn this property back into something special. Set on over a quarter of an acre (approximately 1,012 sqm), it gives it a massive backyard with easy contour and a private front garden where vegies and flowers have basked in the northerly sunshine over the years. This is one of the few remaining Ostend cottages on a large, easy site.

The current owners have installed a heat pump, underfloor and ceiling insulation (bring your builder in to confirm), and a DVS system. The old English floral lino is below the pink carpet, and pulling it back to investigate, it looks like it could be a treasure trove of native timber floors beneath. This property is just waiting for a new owner to unleash its historic past and get stuck in and once again make it as charming and adorable as it originally was. The wooden joinery has even been replaced with white aluminium which blends in perfectly, a large water tank and a garden shed out back are all a huge bonus.

The vendors are very realistic; this will be sold, and they are open to pre-auction offers.
Don't delay, get hold of Andy or Frank for a viewing or better still, just come to one of their open homes.

Auction 12:00pm, on site Saturday 19 July (unless sold prior).
