You may have seen 328 River Street before - but if you've been watching this one, now is the time to take another look.

Back on the market and ready for its next owner, there's a lot more to this character-filled Ballina Island home than you might expect. Three bedrooms, two bathrooms, multiple living spaces, beautiful timber floors, high ceilings, fantastic garaging and plenty of potential for someone with a keen eye.

Inside, two separate living areas offer plenty of flexibility - second lounge, games room, home office or simply somewhere quiet to retreat. Sitting centrally between both living spaces, the U-shaped kitchen enjoys plenty of natural light through the sash window, with gas cooking cleverly positioned within the original fireplace, a dishwasher and good cupboard storage. At the front of the home, more charming sash windows and an adjoining sunroom add to its original character.

Outside, there's a private front courtyard, rear lane access and additional off-street parking, plus a secure double garage with mezzanine storage. An existing utility area with cabinetry and sink adds further functionality to the space, while still leaving room for cars, bikes, boards, tools and storage.

And here's the real story with this one: she's not brand new and she's not pretending to be. There's some paint to do, the existing spa area is showing its age, and there are certainly places where a keen eye and a little love could make a big difference. But the bones, character and space are already here. Renovate and make her your own, explore the potential for multi-generational or dual-living style accommodation (STCA), or simply tidy her up and add her to your investment portfolio. With Medium Density zoning, there's plenty here to get creative with.

Yes, River Street is the main road into Ballina, but once inside, the front sash windows do an impressive job of reducing traffic noise - something that's worth experiencing for yourself.
