3 Wangi Avenue, Cessnock

With prices at the affordable end of the market still on the increase, it is becoming even more difficult to get into your first home or to launch into an investment portfolio, so now is the time to think outside the box. The humble Nissen Hut was designed by British engineer Major Peter Nissen in 1916 for military accommodation and storage. Built with their unique shape providing structural strength and resistance to shrapnel, they are still to this day a place to call home for owner occupiers and tenants. Vacant and ready to move straight into this Nissen Hut is situated on a fenced 531 m2, is light and bright and has neat and tidy kitchen and bathroom. It’s corner block location gives it a sense of openness, and an increase in modern development in the immediate area surrounding it, is a sign of confidence in the future of the area. A great opportunity to own a piece of Australian soil and a stalwart of the architectural world, they are a great way to get into the market and an affordable way to buy an investment, not to mention they can look fantastic when renovated. email rachaelb@jurds.com.au
