Listing # BI3632 | Listed on 16 July

Nestled down a private right of way at the end of a peaceful cul-de-sac, this charming three bedroom weatherboard home offers the perfect combination of comfort, privacy and convenience. Set on a freehold site and bathed in natural sunlight, it's an ideal choice for first home buyers, downsizers or savvy investors looking for a move in ready opportunity.

Originally built in the mid 1960s as part of a collection of homes for Naval staff, this classic weatherboard home has been thoughtfully modernised while retaining its timeless appeal. Repositioned further forward on the site, the work has been completed with a new Code Compliance Certificate (CCC), giving buyers confidence that everything has been professionally signed off.

Behind the scenes, significant improvements have been made to ensure lasting quality. The home sits on new piles installed to current council standards, with foundations extending deeper than the original construction. A new roof adds further peace of mind, while comprehensive earthquake strengthening has been completed, with the piles, bearers and joists all securely nailed and strapped. Designed with its coastal location in mind, stainless steel fixings have been used throughout, and the power feed from the street to the home was also replaced when the house was repositioned.

Inside, you'll find a fresh and inviting interior, having been painted inside and out and finished with brand new carpet throughout. Full insulation ensures year round comfort, while the additional toilet adds everyday practicality. Warm, sunny and beautifully presented, this is a home that's ready to move into and simply enjoy.

The location is where this home truly shines. With a direct entrance to Shepherds Park at the end of the street, you'll have an incredible range of recreational facilities virtually on your doorstep. Enjoy sports fields, football, tennis, squash and bowling clubs, a fitness trail, and a fantastic playground complete with a children's bike circuit. The nearby Beach Haven Wharf offers an easy ferry commute to the city, while local parks, cafés, schools and village amenities are all within easy reach. Just a short stroll away, the Birkenhead United AFC clubhouse is home to one of the area's favourite local pubs, a true community hub where neighbours catch up, families gather after weekend sport and locals come together. It's the kind of place that gives this neighbourhood its welcoming village feel.

Perhaps the greatest testament to this special pocket is the community itself. Many of the neighbours have called this lane home for decades, with some having lived here for more than 25 years. It's the kind of neighbourhood where people put down roots and stay, a reflection of the peaceful setting, friendly community and exceptional lifestyle on offer.

Whether you're searching for your first home, looking to simplify your lifestyle, or adding to your investment portfolio, this sunny, low maintenance property presents an opportunity that's hard to overlook. Homes in tightly held locations like this are rare. Come and discover why so many people choose to stay.
