1/14 Maidstone Street, Altona VIC 3018

3 bed townhouse | Altona shoreline walkable | low maintenance | investor or first home ready This property presents a rare configuration advantage in Altona—a three-bedroom townhouse with two car spaces and a private alfresco area, all within a short walk to the beach and local amenities. The open-plan layout with granite kitchen and timber floors offers a modern, low-maintenance living environment that appeals strongly to first homebuyers, downsizers, and investors alike. Its positioning near the Esplanade, Bay Trail, and schools gives it a lifestyle edge that supports consistent demand in a suburb where 68% of properties are owner-occupied. The main risk is the land size discrepancy between sources, which may affect valuation clarity and resale positioning. Buyers should verify the title and council records to confirm the true land component, as this influences long-term capital growth potential. The property’s last sale in 2003 for $416,000 highlights significant price appreciation, but the current expression of interest campaign suggests the seller is testing the market rather than setting a firm price. For an investor, the 3.5% rental yield and 6.8% suburb growth offer moderate returns, but the property is better held as a long-term owner-occupied home where lifestyle value and coastal proximity compound over time.
