North Geelong VIC 3215

- The spacious open-plan kitchen and dining area enjoys high ceilings and ample natural light from north-facing windows, but again, the vinyl flooring will need to be replaced. It also has pale pink kitchen cabinetry from the 1950s that is in relatively good condition. Some may think this is 'dated,' but it is now popular and expensive amongst retro lovers and could be restored. If so, the old stove in the chimney could perhaps be painted pink for a new lease of life
- All three bedrooms are well-lit and one of them has built-in robes
- Unlike the kitchen, the bathroom has no redeeming features. It has no wall tiles and has suffered accordingly, so it will need complete refurbishment
- The laundry includes a separate toilet.
