169 Hitchen Road is a great find in Pokeno, offering a fully completed, move-in ready legal home and income property. This impressive build sits proudly above Pokeno Village Estate and delivers modern living with the bonus of a rental-ready secondary dwelling. It’s ideal for investors, extended families, or anyone looking to offset their mortgage with a second income.
A Legal Home and Income
This property is not just a house with an attached flat. It’s a genuine legal home and income, meaning both dwellings are fully self-contained, council-approved, and separated by a certified firewall. Each side has its own kitchen, bathroom, laundry, and entrance, giving complete privacy for occupants.
Because it’s recognised by insurers as two separate dwellings under one roof, insurance and compliance are simple. For investors, this means flexibility, live in one side and rent out the other, or rent both for a potential combined income of up to $1,400 per week.
Spacious Main Home
The main home features four bedrooms, two bathrooms, and bright open-plan living that makes the most of the northern sun. The kitchen, dining, and lounge are grouped together for easy family living and entertaining. A scullery adds extra storage and prep space, while Bosch appliances bring style and practicality.
Each bedroom includes built-in wood grain wardrobes with full-height mirrored doors that reflect light and space. The master suite sits quietly at the back of the home, offering a walk-in wardrobe and tiled ensuite with a rain shower. Sliding doors open from the master to a sunny patio, perfect for morning coffee or evening relaxation.
The main bathroom includes a freestanding Verona bath, frameless tiled shower, and underfloor heating. Quality European fittings and finishes bring a touch of sophistication to the space. A double garage completes the main dwelling, with a built-in stone top laundry and a thermally insulated garage door from Thermador.
Independent Two-Bedroom Dwelling
The secondary dwelling is completely independent, with its own access, kitchen, bathroom, laundry, and open-plan lounge and dining area. It’s perfect for extended family, guests, or tenants wanting a modern and private space. Like the main home, it faces north to capture all-day sun and includes quality finishes throughout.
