LEAFY & LOW MAINTENANCE! 58 Marshall Road in Rocklea has taken water to the level of the kitchen bench in the recent floods, and as such is now being sold as a home with renovation potential according to the banks valuation note: This home will require a new kitchen, bathroom, plaster wall sheeting, carpet in bedroom 1, paint throughout and new internal and external doors are required, as well as electrical workings. The home offers a blend of warmth, charm and surprising size, on a low maintenance 405m2 block of land, within walking distance to bus and rail networks, parks and Brisbane Christian College. A tall Pickett Fence, carport and brick front porch are a welcoming combination when arriving home, with a tiled entry foyer providing the perfect 'mess room' to leave shoes, bags and coats; a versatile space that could otherwise function as a work-from-home desk spot. The main bedroom is at the front of the home facing North, is carpeted with a ceiling fan, and is oversized, with an adjacent area perfectly suited for a Nursery, which otherwise has scope to add a walk-in-robe or ensuite bathroom. The second and third bedrooms are both also of great sizes, have beautiful solid hardwood flooring and ceiling fans. The bathroom is neutral in colours, with crisp white tiling, and a shower over bath. The laundry is internal, modern and positioned at the rear of the home with direct access to the backyard. The kitchen is simple and has excellent scope to utilise the size of the room to add additional bench space and overhead cupboards on other walls, and the adjacent laundry offers chance to cleverly arrange the area as a laundry / butlers pantry combo, or simply additional cabinetry. The open plan layout of the kitchen, lounge and dining area allow for a dine-in kitchen, with breakfast bar, and heaps of space for a family dining table. The lounge room is oversized with three large windows delivering some great natural sunlight, with the added comfort of a ceiling fan. The front yard and back yard are fully fenced around the perimeter, with additional side gates at each front corners of the home to allow additional safety for pets and children to remain protected of cars coming and going. The backyard is grassed, with a leafy backdrop and shaded from the western sun, with a garden shed for additional storage with potential for an art studio conversion. Sweet dreams are made of these: - Fully fenced, separate front and backyards - Hardwood timber flooring - Spacious lounge, separate dining space - Bathtub - Scope to add deck or patio - Partly shaded, leafy backyard - Garden shed or art studio - Separate internal laundry Council Rates: $430.40 per quarter. Positioned around the corner from Kookaburra and Freney Street Parks, within walking distance to Rocklea Train Station, Salisbury Train Station, busses and schools, 12 Colvin Street in Rocklea would suit owner occupiers and investors looking to secure a low maintenance home within 11km to the Brisbane CBD.
