An exceptional opportunity awaits in the sought-after suburb of Christies Beach. This classic well-loved family home built in the 1960's sits on a valuable corner allotment and offers independent living over two levels. The home offers a versatile and well-designed floorplan, with oodles of retro for the nostalgic buyer and plenty of potential for a ravishing renovation or a total redevelopment, subject to necessary approvals.

As you arrive on the property, you are greeted by a raised terrace spanning the entire front of the home, showcasing bluestone paving underfoot and the original curved balustrade, it really sets the tone of what is to come. Step inside and you'll be welcomed into an entry foyer, with a planter box that separates this space from the living area. It is here that you start noticing the Art Deco features, such as retro light fittings, decorative cornices and the tiled fireplace mantle. A large window frames views over the vibrant front garden and invites the natural light to flood this living area, while the adjoining dining area has French doors that open onto the outdoor entertaining area. This inviting space is perfect for both relaxation and entertaining. The heart of the home is the spacious kitchen, where classic wooden cabinetry, laminate benchtops and lino flooring create warmth and style. Overlooking both the living & dining areas, this kitchen boasts an electric cooktop & oven, an abundance of cupboard storage in the under bench & overhead cabinets, plenty of bench space for meal prep and the raised breakfast bar is ideal for those quick meals on the go or somewhere for your guests to congregate as you whip up a delicious meal. There are two bedrooms on this level, the main suite is generous in size and has the benefit of access to the two-way bathroom, plus both bedrooms have built-in robes for great storage. The retro-style bathroom is very functional, complete with step-in shower, a bathtub, a large vanity with storage and toilet, the pink & black colour scheme adds a nostalgic touch to the home's character. Set under the main roof of the house, the external laundry boasts large built-in cupboards and a double trough, plus an additional shower, hand basin and separate toilet, perfect for washing off after a day at the beach.

Adding to the appeal of this property is the completely independent studio apartment upstairs, offering flexibility for guests, extended family, teenagers or you could potentially rent it out (stcc). With a separate entrance from the outside stairs, it features a bedroom, a bathroom and an open plan kitchen, meals & living area with sliding door access to the balcony with great views. The kitchen has a freestanding electric cooktop & oven, a large fridge space and plenty of cupboard storage.

Proudly set upon a generous allotment of around 846m², the backyard is a haven for relaxation, entertainment and family fun. The outdoor entertaining area provides the perfect setting for family gatherings, social occasions or weekend barbeques, offering comfort and privacy. Overlooking a beautifully maintained garden and spacious lawn, there is ample room for children and pets to play, while a separate shed ensures convenience for all your storage needs. The front yard is fully fenced, providing another versatile space. Both the front & back yards are established with mature plants, shrubs and lush green grass. There is plenty of secure off-street parking available, a double garage with auto roller doors is accessed from Gilbert Road, a single garage with roller door and additional storage space entering off Taylor Terrace plus room for several cars in the driveway behind the gates.
