This 3bd/1bth fixer upper is in a highly desirable neighbourhood due to its proximity to the university, Warrens and the west coast.  These houses are known to be quite sturdy.  This one is the perfect canvas for an owner who wants to be centrally located or who wants an investment property which is ideal for university students or short-term rentals.

Its prime corner location offers a panoramic view of the neighbourhood.  The living and dining room open out to a front patio.  The kitchen, which is relatively small, adjoins the living space.  A recommended design feature is conversion into an open plan layout, immediately enlarging this area.

There are 3 bedrooms across from a split bathroom, which has the advantage of the toilet being separate from the shower and sink.

The internal wall between bedrooms 2 and 3 should be reconstructed, as there have been horizontal cracks at both the bottom and top of it for over 4 decades.  There are several external cracks and a few blown concrete spots which need remedial work.  The patio railing needs to be replaced and there are a few torch-on roof sheets which need to be re-adhered.

There has been no major cosmetic renovation since the property was constructed so it will certainly benefit from an overall upgrade.

There is quite a bit of land to the rear, including where a large mango tree is located.  It augurs well for addition of an ensuite bathroom or further development of the covered garage area into an apt.

A bonus feature of this property is that clearance of some of the treetops in the gully will result in an unimpeded ocean view.
