It's easy to appreciate a property investment such as 51 Knox Drive.
With water on three sides and farmland on one, Barwon Heads is a special type of 'island'. There just isn't that much land to put new properties on. In fact, the Urban Design Framework prepared for the Barwon Heads Structure Plan (adopted March 2010) clearly states the desire to maintain and strengthen the valued character of Barwon Heads as an 'island' (with a powerful connection to the natural landscape that surrounds it). The result is a beautiful village - though one whose finite property supply is likely to always be relatively scarce.
Currently tenanted, this uncomplicated three bedroom, bungalow style home is set back from the street on a flat, generously sized block in a quiet location. It is well situated for easy access to all of Barwon Heads' attractions including the river, beaches, village park, primary school and main street shops. It is also near public transport, two boat ramps and the river walking trails.
The home comprises of three bedrooms with built in robes, a central bathroom (with bath), a separate laundry with external access, and a basic open plan kitchen and lounge area. It is functional and cosy with warmth provided by a slow combustion wood heater and a reverse cycle split system air-conditioner.
The fully fenced property faces north and a sunny front verandah runs the length of the home. The rear yard contains plenty of shedding and an open, low maintenance garden. There is also plenty of off-street parking.
This is a tremendous opportunity to earn yourself some rental income while owning a piece of Barwon Heads for your own enjoyment over the long-term.
