3 bed house |323m² lot |DA-approved extension |Auction 1 Apr |Est $2.4m value | Classic family appeal in school zone. This three-bedroom house on a 322.5m² block suits families drawn to walkable access to primary schools and everyday conveniences. The modest land size offers scope for the approved extension to expand living space without overreaching into larger redevelopment plays common on bigger lots nearby. Sitting in a street of similar freestanding homes its single-bathroom layout signals practical entry for renovators or downsizers avoiding the premium of multi-storey rebuilds. Families prioritise the immediate catchment of Leichhardt Public School just 0.3km away making this a low-risk hold in a zone where school proximity underpins steady demand. Similar three-bedroom houses here have tracked suburb growth at 7.3% buoyed by consistent buyer interest from locals upgrading within the area. The DA approval adds immediate value by de-risking expansion for buyers who value turnkey potential over blank-canvas sites. Long-term its position ensures holding appeal as inner west families renew rather than relocate amid tightening supply. Market behaviour shows these properties hold firm through cycles thanks to rental yields around 2.7% for those testing the water. Overall the combination of approved plans and locational certainties positions it ahead of unenhanced peers on the street.
