Overview

This well-renovated residential house in Dapto presents a distinctive dual living opportunity on a sizeable 558 sqm block. Its design thoughtfully accommodates a three-bedroom main residence paired with a council-approved, separately metered granny flat. This arrangement offers versatility for owner-occupiers, investors, or extended families, allowing additional privacy or potential rental income.

Inside the main home, extensive renovations enhance both style and functionality. The modern kitchen seamlessly connects to a spacious dining and large living area, encouraging comfortable family living and easy entertaining. The presence of two separate living areas further enhances flexibility, ideal for different family activities or creating private retreats.

All bedrooms include built-in robes, ceiling fans, and shutters, highlighting attention to comfort and storage.
The bathroom boasts quality finishes with floor-to-ceiling tiles and a relaxing large bath.
Air conditioning and ceiling fans throughout ensure year-round comfort tailored to the local climate.
A generous undercover outdoor entertaining deck extends from the kitchen and dining space, creating an inviting environment for social gatherings, family downtime, or alfresco dining.

The single carport and additional driveway parking offer practical convenience. Meanwhile, the separate granny flat adds significant value and flexibility — ideal as a teenager’s retreat, guest accommodation, home office, or can be rented to supplement income.

Currently, the entire property returns a solid combined rental income, with the main residence leased at $695 per week and the granny flat at $410 per week. Property management appraisals suggest the potential to increase this income further. Tenants are reportedly content, reinforcing the property's appeal to investors seeking steady returns.

This property is especially suitable for first-home buyers requiring extra space, families desiring diversity in living arrangements, or investors aiming for a reliable income stream with future growth potential. The quality of renovations and flexible layouts make it a move-in ready option, balancing contemporary living with economic opportunity.
