Fantastic Location!! In a secluded little pocket of Rapid Creek, adjoining Dudley Park, is this elevated classic on a whopping a 1176sqm allotment. The home is in need of a complete makeover but the bones are good and the location is sensational. Being just one block from the beautiful Rapid Creek foreshore and Essington School, as well as in the school zone for Darwin Middle & High schools, St Paul's and Nightcliff Preschool/Primary, the position is spot on.Almost completely hidden from the road by plenty of established shade trees the home is located at the end of a quite cul de sac. Upstairs the original floorboards have been retained and are in good condition, the bedrooms are spacious and there is an abundance of louvre windows to allow fantastic air flow throughout the home. A unique feature are two enclosed balconies at the front and rear of the home; one off the open plan living area and one accessed via the main bedroom.Downstairs has been converted in to another living space with a large open plan area, very basic kitchen and separate toilet and shower. There are also two store rooms and the laundry under the home.
