EAST

Head to the prestigious, leafy eastern suburbs with your $455,000 budget and you are basically looking at a two-bedroom unit.

This unit, which is part of a group of four at 2/6 Glen St, Burnside is being marketed as having great investment potential, and the selling agent suggests it could be upgraded to suit the next owner’s tastes.

The home is on the market with LJ Hooker West Lakes/Henley Beach for $440,000 — $460,000.
