49 William Street, Richmond, Tasman

Makeover heaven, prime location

If you want to add value to a home screaming "potential plus", this lovely old charmer in Richmond has your name all over it.
Count the pluses: minutes from schools and Richmond shops, super-sunny section of 666m² and many original features intact from its 1910 origins.
For families starting out, investors with an eye to profit, or couples keen to create their vision at an affordable price, this beauty offers so much.
Inside, so many lovely original features remain including the native timber floors, skirting boards and architraves, sash windows, three roomy bedrooms and an airy front living room. There's even a sleepout as well as a tandem car port and workshop.
Insulation in the ceiling and walls helps keep the house warm and there's a consented log burner in the lounge and gas heat pump in the kitchen/dining area.
So close to Waimea Intermediate and College and within easy walk of Henley primary and Waimea kindergarten. The aquatic centre is down the road and it's a quick trip to all the sports at Saxton Field.
From the front veranda, you can look out to the Richmond Hills and you'll enjoy all-day sun.
The house has been recently renovated, so it's ready to move into. However, new owners will quickly see fantastic opportunities to return the front part of the home to its fully original state - and give their imagination free rein on improvements to the rear of the house where French doors open to the garden. Here, the flat section invites exciting landscaping ideas. The back yard is secure, with mature plantings, including lemon and peach trees and a hazelnut tree. You'll quickly see the potential to create superb outdoor living.
Whether it's your plan to move in and contemplate changes, or get stuck into renovations straight away, here's a good opportunity to acquire a home with character in a great location. Being so close to town, William Street is already on the radar of new buyers investing money.
