Two homes, one title, endless opportunities

This dual living property is for sale at 16 Weston Court, Bellbird Park.

When Kathryn and Marcus Backway built this dual-living investment property two years ago, they knew they were on to a sure thing.

The property at 16 Weston Crt, Bellbird Park, has never been empty and currently generates a solid rental return of $520 a week.

It’s two homes on one 402 sqm title — a three-bedroom, two-bathroom house and a one-bedroom, one-bathroom home.

“We knew dual living was the way of the future,” Mrs Backway said.

“You could put a family in one side and elderly parents in the other, or a young family could live in one home and rent the other one out to help pay the mortgage.”

Each home is currently rented out to separate parties.

Mrs Backway said the couple were selling to pursue other investment opportunities interstate.

Tucked away at the end of a quiet cul-de-sac, the property is in a high growth corridor with infrastructure close by, ensuring a solid investment.

Inside, the homes feature a modern design with tiled, open plan living areas, carpeted bedrooms, separate entrances and fenced yards.

Both kitchens feature stone bench tops and stainless steel appliances.

Unlike some duplexes and townhouses, there are no body corporate fees.

The property is also lower maintenance than owning two separate rental properties.

Mrs Backway said the majority of inquiries had so far come from investors, who recognised the growing appetite for dual living as the population aged and downsizing became more popular.

“I think it will only continue to grow as the demographics change,” she said.
