16 Sherwood Dr, McKail WA 6330, Australia

If you have a tight budget and want a place of your own to call home, or maybe you’ve decided that now’s the time to grow your rental investment portfolio, you must check out this appealing brick and tile home in a quiet McKail street.

From the front, you can look out over the rooftops to Mt Melville, and there’s a park and kids’ playground almost opposite.

The home is very tidy and ready to move into, and any improvements you carry out as you go will add to the home’s value – you can’t lose.

It occupies a corner block of 784sqm in Sherwood Drive, with a driveway leading to a garage and good parking space around the corner in Ash Way.

Most of the land is in grass with a few native trees, so it shouldn’t demand too much of your attention unless you’re a keen gardener who wants to plant veggies and flower beds – and there’s plenty of scope for that.

An open lounge, dining area and kitchen make up the main living space, which is complemented by a private undercover patio in the back yard, in a fenced area to keep young ones and pets contained.

Although the kitchen would benefit from a makeover, it’s clean and serviceable with gas cooking and space for a fridge-freezer.

Two of the bedrooms are doubles and one is a good-sized single, and the nearby bathroom has a bath, walk-in shower and vanity. The toilet is separate, off the laundry.

For convenience in winter, there’s a gas heater in the lounge. Flooring and blinds are in good condition and décor is neutral.

It won’t take much to put your own stamp on this place and make it shine. It’s a terrific, affordable home for couples or small families, and an excellent rental proposition.

Being close to schools, supermarkets and TAFE and in a good neighbourhood, it’s sure to be snapped up by a buyer recognising its great location and value.
