Last Listing description (November 2021)

Sorry, this is now gone.Unbelievable. If you said you could get a property in one of the most desirable Kensington locations that has the best, most lovely, professional tenants who have been in the place ELEVEN years and love it like their own and that you could pick it up under 300k, you should be calling your Bank Manager. Well, now you can have it and your Bank Manager will be well pleased with you too! This is an investment opportunity or first home (once the lease runs out in April 2022) that simply MUST not be overlooked. Just across the bridge from the city, this original but superbly maintained unit is all about location and convenience. With the Kensington Primary School and renowned Kent Street Senior High School a short walk up the road, the Swan River foreshore just a few hundred metres the other way, and Perth CBD just an 11 minute bus trip away, this is the heartbeat of everything good about the area.With just 28 units in the complex, it is a quiet and well managed complex and the gardens were being manicured the day we turned up for photos. Being a first floor unit, there is a balcony but no garden to worry about.Inside there is NOTHING to do, nothing. Thee are 2 great bedrooms with heaps of robes for the master suite, and a fantastic living space. You actually get a separate dining, a very functional kitchen and a real laundry! So decor wise, the owners have left this pretty original which makes the presentation unique - its like its been loved to within an inch of its life - preserved if you will! And I reckon the style is almost coming back in vogue - lets call it 70's retro chic and move on. There is air con for comfort, a great balcony and parking. And yes, views as you are on the 1st floor here.I cant stress the location enough, if this was in any other capital city, this close to the hub, you would be looking for a lotto ticket, but instead you can own this AND have the tenants stay and pay off your mortgage for you. I can't think of a better deal right now and I bet you can't either - so pick up the phone and call to view this MAGIC little property! Make sure you wear good socks, we can't walk on the carpet in shoes - tenants you know? !!Small print: Tenanted till April 2022 at $310 per week, strata fees $400qtr and $100 sinking.
