Priced $549,000 Deadline Sale: 07/July/2026 (Unless Sold Prior)

Properties that combine strong cash flow, low maintenance, and a proven rental setup are becoming increasingly difficult to secure. This 2017 built townhouse delivers all three, offering a potential gross yield of 8%+ based on previous rental performance. For investors seeking strong returns in a city-fringe location, opportunities like this are becoming increasingly rare.

Designed for maximum functionality, the layout offers three bedrooms, each paired with its own bathroom, creating a level of privacy rarely found in comparable properties. This configuration has proven highly effective for room-by-room rentals, helping maximise occupancy appeal and rental performance.

The open-plan kitchen, dining, and living area provides a practical and modern space, flowing effortlessly to a private outdoor area. Built in 2016, the property benefits from contemporary construction standards, double glazing, and a low-maintenance design that allows owners to focus on returns rather than ongoing upkeep.
