Move-in ready and priced to turn heads, 34 Kelly Street, Berkeley might be a first-home buyer’s dream come true.
Sitting on about 601 sqm, this contemporary three-bedroom home has undergone a top-to-toe transformation to offer effortless contemporary living from front to back.
Inviting offers from $900,000, the price guide falls below the caps for both the Federal Low-Deposit Guarantee Scheme and First Home Buyers Assistance Scheme, making it particularly enticing for eligible buyers.
“Houses in the Illawarra listed under $1,000,000 are in high demand and still seeing strong turnover,” Agency Kiama/Gerringong’s Daniel Dajcic says, noting that the current high construction costs add another major drawcard.
“If you’re a first-time buyer looking to get a foothold in the market, it’s pretty rare that you can scrape in for under $1,000,000 and not need to spend any money on the property. Buyers are seeing more value in turnkey properties, as opposed to the fixer-upper.
“All the hard work has been completed; all you need to do is move in and enjoy.”
The home is characterised by neutral interiors, hybrid timber flooring and plantation shutters for a crisp, modern aesthetic.
There’s a European-style laundry and a beautifully finished bathroom with floor-to-ceiling tiles and gold tapware.
Ceiling fans in all bedrooms and reverse-cycle air conditioning in the living room and main bedroom ensure summer comfort.
It’s all anchored at its heart by the light-filled, open-plan living, dining and kitchen, complete with stone benchtops, Miele appliances and a shiplap island bench with extra storage.
This flows seamlessly onto a new composite deck overlooking the spacious backyard, with plenty of lovely, level lawn.
“The back balcony has those lovely escarpment views,” Daniel says.
“You can sit there with a beverage and relax, and it’s an ideal spot, if you’re a young family, for parents to keep an eye on kids and family pets running around.
An inviting firepit area will be a great spot to gather with friends under the stars.
Completing the picture is more composite decking out front, and an oversized single-car garage.
“I can confidently say this is the best-presented home listed for sale in Berkeley,” Daniel says.
The home itself combines with a convenient location to create an ideal opportunity for first-home buyers, downsizers, or investors alike.
Berkeley West Public School is an easy walk around the corner. Nearby, you also have Gallop Street Reserve, Kelly Street Reserve and local corner shops, including a bakery at the end of the street.
