Opportunities of this calibre are exceptionally rare.
Coming to the market for the first time in 32 years, this substantial 1970s-built residence offers extraordinary space, versatility, and long-term upside in one of Wattle Downs' most tightly held streets. With a commanding 290m² floor area and a flexible layout perfectly suited to extended families, home-and-income living, or strategic buyers, this is a property that simply cannot be replicated today.

  • Self-contained downstairs living featuring:
Living room,Two bedrooms,Bathroom with Kitchenette and laundry; ideal for extended family, guests, or independent living

  • Scope to modernise, renovate, and add value while retaining strong fundamentals

Set in the heart of Wattle Downs, this property combines location, land, and layout in a way that is increasingly difficult to find. The zoning adds long-term strategic appeal, while the scale and separation of spaces provide genuine flexibility for multi-generational living or future-proofed ownership. Whether you choose to enhance and modernise, or simply enjoy the home as it stands, the underlying value proposition is undeniable.

This home will strongly appeal to large or extended families, buyers seeking genuine multi-generational or dual-living capability, professionals working from home who require separation and scale, and long-term value buyers who understand the rarity of properties of this size, zoning, and location coming to market.

A Once-in-30-Year Opportunity
Held by the same family for over three decades, this is a true legacy property-offered only because of a change in circumstances. Homes of this size, flexibility, and landholding in Wattle Downs are seldom available and highly sought after.

Pre-auction offers are strongly encouraged and will be considered. Buyers are advised not to wait, as the property may be sold prior to auction.
Inspect early and act decisively. Opportunities like this do not repeat themselves, and hesitation may mean waiting another generation for something comparable to appear. Contact Iza now 0224929850.
