Last Listing description (October 2023)

Well she certainly didn't look like this, when this lovely family bought her, she had an ugly old roof, ugly old kitchen, ugly old bathroom and floors and paintwork that no one would choose.

Out the back was nothing like it looks now.

A truck load of love, labour and money have been sunk into the property, inside and outside to change it up from being the old girl “ugly duckling” just house that she was.

She's transformed into a beautiful swan and become a genuine “home sweet home”, property this family have loved living in and entertaining from!

Outside the old wire fence has disappeared and the entire roof has been replaced.

A new deck welcomes you inside and is the perfect place to read the paper and enjoy your morning coffee in winter, complete with a lovely blue water outlook over the green soccer park to The Channel.

The perfect spot to enjoy a beer on a hot summer afternoon, you can't beat the sea breezes that blow in off the ocean and cool things down.

Step inside and appreciate big living, without the scary lemon walls and multi coloured scary patterned carpet long gone!

Appreciate rarely needed, new split system air conditioning, that takes the edge on the rare occasion there's no sun winter sun or cool summer breeze.

Spacious living flows through to an oversized kitchen that's been replaced with quality timber and black granite cabinetry, exactly like a kitchen we had in a home we sold some years back for &1,800,000 that would be worth over $3,000,000 now, so you're in good company ;).

From the kitchen step out into light and airy second living that connects beautifully to gorgeous outdoor back deck living.

The laundry works like an extension of the kitchen, with a butler's pantry like feel.

A genuine powder room off the second living provides a handy second toilet inside, perfect for when you're entertaining guests inside or deck side, coming in handy when you're out enjoying the back yard or fiddling on cars on the big drive thru carport.

The deck is an absolute delight and it flows out to a feature podium style, second big covered deck, perfect for Christmas lunch and Sunday BBQs, I'd eat my breakfast, lunch and dinner here overlooking the backyard paradise.

Lovers of birds, these owners have a wildlife sanctuary size aviary, that you can walk around and admire and listen to birds that don't just look pretty but sound pretty too!

There's a sweet shade tree and enough lawn for puppies and kids, that won't take you hours to mow, complete with some banana trees and great sheds for your tools.

Back inside discover an upgraded bathroom, with no bath to clean, right by the master suite, complete with big built in robes and the second bedroom.

Great for guests, access the back bedroom off the rear living or open up the second and third bedroom for grandkids and young kids or his and her offices if you work from home!

Love the oversized auto access massive garaging, with 1 carport leading to another drive thru oversized carport to the backyard.

If you love to fiddle you'll love the sheds and garaging, if you don't and you want a straight forward back lawn, then just sell off the sheds and aviary.

No matter what, you can't deny the work that's been done here, the home has been transformed and majorly overhauled over the years, so that there's nothing left to do but move in and enjoy, unless you want to add a few of your own personal touches and put your own stamp on her!
