64 Hobson Street, Stratford VIC 3862

| 3 living zones on 752m² | 2016 build, low maintenance | Bushfire overlay present | Study + master ensuite | 15 mins to Sale | The property offers a rare configuration advantage for its price point: three separate living areas plus a study on a single, manageable 752m² lot. This layout serves families needing distinct zones for work, play, and retreat, or those who may later rent out a room without compromising shared space. The 2016 build reduces immediate maintenance risk, and the double garage with internal access adds daily convenience. It is best suited to buyers seeking a modern, turnkey family home in a commuter-friendly rural setting, where the floorplan outperforms most comparables near Stratford’s median. The bushfire overlay is the primary risk, potentially increasing insurance costs and limiting some buyer pools, though no flood or heritage constraints apply. The rental yield of approximately 4.4% at current estimates supports an investment hold strategy, but the listing price sits above recent valuations, suggesting limited short-term capital growth. For an owner-occupier, the property’s multiple living zones and low-maintenance build offer strong lifestyle utility; for an investor, it should be acquired only at or below the $589,000 valuation to preserve yield. Hold this property as a long-term family residence or a steady rental, not for speculative gain.
