16 Michels Street

Positioned in the heart of "Original Ripley" on a massive 1016m² allotment, 16 Michels Street is a property of rare proportions and even rarer potential. Built in 1985, this highset classic offers the kind of "family-sized" land and infrastructure that is becoming a needle in a haystack. With a wide 20-metre frontage and dedicated side access via a full concrete driveway, this property is perfectly primed for those with an active lifestyle, a home business, or a serious collection of toys. A Solid Foundation for Your Vision: This is a big, honest family home with great "bones" and a layout that works. While the residence is largely sound and perfectly livable as-is, it is ready for a cosmetic refresh. For the buyer with a bit of vision and a little love to give, there is significant equity to be unlocked here by updating the original features and making this gem really shine. The Home: A standout feature is the internal stairs, providing a safe and seamless connection between the two levels-a luxury not often found in homes of this era and highly sort after. Upper Level: Features three generous bedrooms and a big, open-plan lounge and dining area. Comfort is covered with multiple air conditioners and ceiling fans throughout. The updated family kitchen is huge and functional, while the main bathroom remains in its original, tidy condition. The Deck: A massive rear deck overlooks the backyard, offering the ultimate vantage point for entertaining. Lower Level: Boasting ample head height, the downstairs area is limited only by your imagination. With several rooms already in place, it's the ideal setup for a teenager's retreat, rumpus room, or guest accommodation, complete with a laundry and ample room for a second toilet and shower facility. The "Tradie's Dream" Setup The external infrastructure is where this property truly excels: Massive 3-Bay Powered Shed: A dedicated workshop space for projects and heavy-duty storage. Plus, + Parking: A 2-bay tandem carport plus a 2-bay garage under the home. Access: The 20m frontage allows for genuine wide side access, with concrete paving extending all the way to the shed. Why Original Ripley? This is the "family block" capital of the region. You aren't just buying a house; you're buying a 1016m² playground in a quiet, established pocket where neighbours know each other and there's actually room to breathe.
