Located in a wide 'coastal strip' street amongst homes of a similar high standard and with scent and sight of Gulf St Vincent available via your front door and balcony, this much loved eight main room property exudes character to go with its more than generous and flexible spaces.
Located just 200 metres or so from the Esplanade, the North facing faade of this home emanates from the era of bungalows while much of the interior elements suggests earlier origins. From the large shaded shelter of its gabled front veranda, where comfortably seated you can take in the ozone and the quiet passing parade of life, you can often hear the crashing of waves on the beach.
Framed by a low rendered wall, the low maintenance front garden is open and clear of obstruction so that the sun's northern rays are unimpeded as they make their way into the hallway and front rooms.
Entry can be gained by choosing between the shelter of the long wide three vehicle carport and its new electric door or greet your guests under the shelter of the veranda and invite them into welcoming central hallway.
Featuring polished pine flooring, hall arch, dado rail and other period elements, the entry via the solid front and security screen door is bright and welcoming. Like many home of the era, there is a high degree of flexibility in the floor plan as several of the rooms are large and accessible from the central hallway.
The generous main bedroom is however predetermined as it has an en-suite, the first of three bathrooms, as well as an adjacent walk in robe. Logically there are at least two more bedrooms under the main roof, one of which has shared en-suite access to the main bathroom and in addition there is the option of a fourth bedroom comprised as a separate studio/bedroom/en-suite at the rear of the home.
In terms of living space this home is particularly notable. The well-proportioned living room on the western side of the home includes a fine open fireplace, one of five originals to be found throughout the home, and access to the dining room. Immediately adjacent is the galley style solid timber kitchen, cellar access, main bathroom and the stairway leading upstairs.
With approximately 45sqm of floor area, the second level rumpus/games room is the size of many apartments. Superbly built into the roof space many years ago, there is plenty of natural light penetration, a pool table included in the sale and access to a good and solid north-facing balcony at the front of the home from which you can catch a glimpse of the open water at the end of the street.
Returning to the rear of the home via the kitchen you will find a very well proportioned timber decking which is divided into two distinct and flexible spaces which share access to the rear garden via a wide railed stairway.
At ground level is the open balance of its 646 square metres of land. With bore water at your disposal and cleared of superfluous shrubbery and newly fenced for enhanced presentation and privacy, there is ample opportunity to be found here to exercise your imagination and set about your plans of how you might best utilise the garden space.
The main structure here is the well set studio/bedroom/en-suite which provides a granny flat or teenagers retreat option and under the same roof, the adjacent garage workshop which provides secure shelter for a fourth vehicle if required.
Having enjoyed many happy and productive years in this beautiful seaside home, the owner is ready to release the keys and having already vacated is committed to do so.
Circumstances permitting, the intention is to auction the property on site. In the absence of laws allowing that to occur, we will sell via auction in an online setting such as Zoom.
Until open inspections are commenced legally and beyond, buyers are encouraged to make individual appointments to view the home which due to its occupancy status, is flexibly and conveniently accessible.
