“That is unique to have three separate buildings. In effect you can get three rentals or occupy one and rent another two,” he says.

Grgic says the estimated selling range for the property is from $515,000 to $565,000.

“We’ve currently let similar sheds, though they are tilt slab, for $15,000, including outgoings.
“The dwelling we think can attract $270 to $290 a week.”
