What an amazing opportunity this 1920's bungalow offers to purchase in the premium "Golden Triangle" location of Mt Albert, and add substantial value through renovation. The dwelling interior is pretty tired and dated and would benefit greatly from a thoughtful modernisation, which will certainly pay significant dividends for future resale and capital gain. The freehold (cross-leased) title is a 2/3 share of 1115m2 at the top end of Alberton Ave near Mt Albert, offering wonderful elevated views to the city and all the way to One Tree Hill. The property backs onto the Mt Albert Grammar Farm, with the cows & sheep grazing giving the home a charming rural feel. Single House zoning is a bonus in this location as it inhibits high density development and offers some future protection to the character of the area.
The sublime location offers a great deal of special benefits including the very highly regarded school zones of Gladstone School, Kowhai Intermediate, and Mt Albert Grammar which is situated on Alberton Ave, as is popular Marist School for girls. Family fun is assured with the Mt Albert Aquatic Centre just down the street and for the younger kids popular Rocket Park is at the end of the street, with a lovely parkside cafe for child watching refreshments. Mt Albert has a wonderful community spirit and there are lots of activities including the awesome Farmer's Market on a Saturday morning, and heaps of activities for young & old at the YMCA.
As if the location could not possibly offer any more, it certainly does with easy access to CBD and beyond, with easy motorway access and public transport options including nearby train stations. St Lukes Westfield Mall is very nearby also for the shopping requirements.
