Spencer Park WA 6330

Fabulous ocean views, spacious rooms and a versatile layout are hallmarks of this well-located property within easy reach of all family amenities, the beach and town.Built in the late 1960s, the home is in fairly original condition and would benefit from a facelift, but it's priced accordingly and new owners prepared to roll up their sleeves and make a modest further investment will reap compound rewards.Structurally, it's sound and well built, so work is mainly cosmetic and for owner-occupiers, it could easily be carried out while living there. Jarrah floorboards - exposed in some rooms - could be polished to look sensational.The home sits on a corner block of 832sqm in a quiet street of just a few houses and overlooks natural bushland. It is elevated to make the most of the ocean view, with a garage and powered workshop area underneath and plenty more off-road parking. Double gates provide access to the back yard, where there's a carport and paved hardstand for the caravan or trailer.Two large windows in the lounge and a corner window in the dining area take in the views to Middleton Bay, the islands and Gull Rock National Park while making this area sunny and welcoming.Off the air-conditioned dining area are French doors onto the front balcony and on the opposite side is the sizeable kitchen with a leafy outlook. Like the bathroom, this would benefit from modernising, but the footprint allows design flexibility.Of the three bedrooms in this area of the house, two are doubles and one is a good-sized single.An exciting feature for most families is the fourth bedroom. Designed as a bed-sitting room, this big, sunny area has a sink with space for a bench-top stove, its own shower room and toilet, and external access leading to a sheltered, undercover patio at the front. This, too, enjoys the views, and is perfect as an independent living space or as a studio or home-based office.The grassy block has a few mature native trees as well as easy-care garden beds at the perimeter and a shed for the tools.This property presents an outstanding opportunity for value-adding, and its position just around the corner from the primary school and a short walk to medical facilities and a shopping centre make it a perfect location for families.To explore the potential this exciting property offers, contact Lee Stonell on 0409 684 653 or lee@merrifield.com.auWhat you need to know:- Brick and tile family home- 832sqm corner block in quiet street- Fabulous ocean views- Leafy outlook- Jarrah floors, high ceilings- Big lounge with fireplace- Air-conditioned dining area- Front balcony, side patio- Sizeable kitchen- Two double bedrooms, one good-sized single- Fourth bedroom with shower room, toilet and sink - ideal granny flat or studio- Bathroom with bath and vanity- Separate toilet- Laundry- Single garage and powered workshop- Gates for easy access to back yard- Garden shed- Ideal for a facelift - easy project for value-adding- Council rates $2,010.50- Water rates $1,427.45
