Overview

52 Powell Street, Wulguru

Positioned in a quiet pocket of Wulguru, this beautifully refreshed highset home offers generous space, modern updates, and outstanding functionality. It is ideal for first home buyers, families, or investors seeking a move-in ready property with minimal ongoing maintenance. The property is set on a fully fenced block with side access and excellent vehicle storage, making it well suited for families, defence personnel, and long-term tenants who value extra space and outdoor living.

Upstairs, the home features three well-sized bedrooms, a beautifully renovated bathroom, and multiple living areas that provide genuine separation and flexibility for various household types. The heart of the home is the light-filled living and dining zone that flows out to a large undercover rear deck, perfect for year-round entertaining and embracing the classic North Queensland lifestyle. The kitchen is well positioned with updated lighting and an additional fan to improve airflow while cooking.

Downstairs, the property offers a massive bar and living area, ideal as a games room, rumpus, or teenager's retreat. An additional multipurpose room or office adds even more usable space, suitable for work-from-home tenants or hobbyists. Secure parking is available underneath the house, complemented by a side carport with excellent clearance for a boat, caravan, or extra vehicles, plus additional off-street parking in the front yard.

The current owners have invested heavily in key areas, allowing the next owner to enjoy the benefits without disruption or cost. In the last five years, the roof has been professionally painted, enhancing street appeal and modernizing the overall look. Over the past 12 months, key comfort upgrades include new split system air conditioning in the lounge and main bedroom, a replacement box air conditioner in another bedroom, a new front fence with a 6ft timber fence and sliding gate, and thoughtful garden improvements with hardy shrubs and desert roses for easier upkeep.

In the last six months, further improvements include a complete bathroom refit and renovation, full exterior repaint including the front fence, replacement of rotted or worn deck panels and stair panelling with modern wire balustrade, repairs and tightening of front and back staircases, full replacement of old roof guttering, selective internal painting, and replacement of all internal ceiling fans with modern black units. The outdated kitchen chandelier has been replaced with a practical light/fan combination to boost airflow and lighting. Various fence palings and fascia boards have also been replaced to maintain a secure, solid yard and protect the home's structure.

For investors, this property is particularly appealing due to its well-presented condition, extensive updates with major maintenance already completed, multiple living zones to attract quality tenants, and excellent storage and parking options that are increasingly sought after. The owners are open to including the 50-inch wall-mounted television downstairs and a near-new dishwasher (under six months old and still under warranty) in the sale, adding extra value and convenience for the next occupants.

This is a standout opportunity to secure a spacious, low-hassle home in a strong rental catchment close to Lavarack Barracks, James Cook University, major employment hubs, and key transport links. It is ideal as a first home, next home, or portfolio addition investment.
