Agents of a fixer-upper for sale are frank when it comes to the renovation required.
The four-bedroom, three-bathroom property at 17 Tobruk Avenue in Sydney's St Ives is headed to auction with a $1.7 million price guide and is need of major TLC.
Greg Howard and Alice Chen of EW Property Group good naturedly reveal on the listing that the home is the type that "needs love, sweat and maybe a bit of cursing".

The home is on a 1680-square-metre block and is nestled in greenery, which the ritzy suburb is renowned for.
Listing photos reveal a four-level brick build and a neat but older style which could shine with a revamp.
