The current owners have updated the home in recent years however the property still offers its new owners the opportunity to further renovate and reap the rewards. The location alone will guarantee strong capital growth into the future.
Most windows of the home frame perfect ocean and island views, which is a terrific backdrop for entertaining your family and friends at any time of the year!
Set over two levels, the lower level of the home includes an enormous family room with glorious views of the ocean to the front and has a calming view of an extensive fernery that forms the backdrop through large glass doors and windows at the rear.
There's also a built in bedroom on this level that has access to its own shower room, toilet and laundry. A small amount of renovation could easily update this area to include a kitchenette which would make it the perfect granny flat or guest accommodation!
This level also includes undercover garaging for up to 4 vehicles, with direct access out of the weather into the home.
Carpeted stairs lead to the upper level where you reach a casual dining area which forms a part of the timber kitchen with glorious views out of the front windows.
The kitchen includes a near new gas stove, dishwasher, insinkerator and a very large walk in pantry that will delight anyone who likes to cook!
The kitchen is the central point of the upper level and separates the living areas from the hall that leads to the upstairs bedrooms.
The living and dining area on this level is bright, fresh and breezy due to its open plan design, this area leads directly onto the balcony which is large enough to include an outdoor setting and a big BBQ!
You'll spend many of your days and nights entertaining and relaxing right here - there's no doubt about it!
Down the hall off the kitchen you'll discover good size built in bedrooms on the ocean side, each with their own direct access to the front balcony that spans the width of the home.
The rear of this level includes storage that will delight anyone.
In addition to this, there is a well designed 3 way bathroom which offers privacy and space for family members. The toilet is separate and sits opposite the vanity area. A shower room sits just across the way and can be shut off from the rest of the area.
A well equipped laundry sits at the very back of this level and is conveniently located with direct access to an exterior deck that includes a drying area and clothes line – no need to go downstairs to hang the washing!
The master suite sits at the far end of the home and is the perfect parents retreat. Well renovated, this suite can be shut off from the rest of the home and offers privacy, peace and quiet!
The bedroom sits on the ocean side to ensure the views are captured, plus there is an extensive walk through robe which is large enough to be ''his and hers!'' The ensuite can be accessed through the robe area and also directly from the bedroom.
The home is well elevated from the street and is reached via a rising driveway (which offers room for more car parking without interfering with driveway access).
The yard and gardens are low maintenance (there are grassed areas at the side and front of the home). Clever drainage design has ensured that any water run off from the houses above is guided through a spoon drain away from the home and off the property.
The owners have lived here for many years and have decided it is time to move on. They are serious sellers and will welcome offers on the property.
