Representing a dream for renovators, historic home preservers and first-home buyers alike, 57 Ferrier Street, Lockhart is a unique three-bedroom, one-bathroom property on the market in Lockhart.
The strength of this property is that it can be so many different things to so many people. It’s a move-in-ready property, completely liveable as it stands and perfect for those who love all things vintage. It’s also an affordable property on a large block, inviting expansion and renovation.
“It has a lot of classic country charm. Someone who appreciates that sort of style will find a lot to love with this home,” Conny Blacklock Property principal Conny Blacklock says.
“Yet of course, if you wanted to overhaul it, there’s a lot of improvement that could be done here, and with the amount of land, there’s no telling how you could expand it.”
The open kitchen/living area could be updated to take advantage of the high, pressed tin ceilings and the vintage fireplace, creating an exceptional space for entertaining.
Like the rest of the home, the outdoor area in this property opens up plenty of opportunity to add to it or enjoy it as it stands.
“With 1012 sqm of land, there’s a lot on offer here and the garden is a very important part of the home. There’s a lot of grassed area, two fruiting orange trees, an established fernery and paved sitting areas. It’s a beautiful space,” Conny says.
This is to say nothing of the large covered alfresco dining area, which has enough room for a real crowd and would welcome a barbecue.
The backyard also contains a laundry shed with an extra toilet and a larger shed at the back of the block.
“The shed out the back has room for single-car accommodation and given the size of the block, there’s enough space to put up a granny flat,” Conny says.
“Part of the attraction in buying in smaller towns like Lockhart is that you get a whole lot more for less.”
This property offers a lifestyle in a quiet community, with access to all the day-to-day amenities you may need, at an affordable price.
“We’re finding that lots of buyers are coming out to towns like Lockhart because there’s much better value for money. You can get a move-in-ready home on a big block in a quiet street for an enviable price,” Conny says.
For first-home buyers hoping to make their start in a difficult market, 57 Ferrier Street is a great opportunity.
“Someone with a vision for their dream home could make this their own relatively cheaply,” Conny says.
Fifty-seven Ferrier Street is a rare find: an affordable, move-in-ready garden home with plenty of room for expansion and improvement.
“It’s a home with history and the right owner, with a vision, could give it an extraordinary future,” Conny says.
