And what if you can also add rear lane access, room to build a large garage or carport to accommodate cars, boats or caravan (STCA), drive through access and all within 150m of one of the main boat ramps for the region, then would you think that perhaps this may be the property for you? If so, read on you won t be disappointed!
Situated half way down a cul-du-sac in a serene location, this cute as a button cottage is eagerly waiting for its new forever owners to come along! Surrounded by home owners who have lived in the same homes for decades, put out each other s bins and lend each other a helping hand, this quiet street with reserve directly opposite is as safe a spot as you ll find.
Easy to imagine sitting reading the paper or sipping a cup of tea on the front porch, one is ushered through a fully restored solid hardwood door with brilliant green original crinkled glass inset, fully operational casement window above and a rich-toned bell chime.

Upon entering the lounge room, one admires the fully restored ornate ceiling, lovely solid double hung timber window, picture rails, and beautiful cornicing, skirting and architraves. Freshly painted both inside and out, the interior ushers modern but unassuming muted tones that enhance the original features.
The front two bedrooms boast generous dimensions, brand new built-in robes and ceiling fans as well as water views. The master has provision made for a nook for study and bookshelves or extra storage with a beautiful bay window, fully restored original ornate ceiling and original french doors with frosted glass. Bedroom two boasts delightful leadlight windows with small triangles of deep purple which are captured by the natural light and create a delightful atmosphere. Bedroom three also has a new built-in robe and ceiling fan, as well as a delightful casement window with frosted glass and original hinging.
Walking through the square-set opening from lounge to dining, one comes face-to-face with a brand-new generous sized kitchen with 2-pack polyurethane finishes, quality composite stone bench top and oversized breakfast bar. Boasting a new dishwasher, convection cooktop and range hood along with LED lights expertly routed into the bottom of overhanging cabinets, one can see that this kitchen would be a joy to cook and entertain in. As the heart of the home, this open plan kitchen-dining are provides a lovely space. The beautiful, restored back and laundry crinkled glass panelled doors only add extra character, texture and natural light that both spill onto the quality tallowwood covered deck complete with two separate zones, ceiling fan and privacy screen. This is truly outdoor living with a quiet spot to rest or entertain throughout the seasons, and the ability to enjoy morning sunrises and refreshing sea breezes.
The fully renovated bathroom displays quality, floor-to-ceiling tiles, polyurethane off-wall vanity, large single glass panel allowing for oversized shower, and a quality toilet with soft-closing lid. The laundry provides a welcomed second toilet behind a stylish square-set nib wall, as well as ample storage and composite stone bench top surrounding a deep and practical laundry sink.
The backyard boasts a generous sized garden shed, with double colourbond gates leading onto the rear lane. Precedent is clearly set off the rear lane for large garages, and this property could happily accommodate that request (STCA). Another set of colourbond gates and side pedestrian gate run across the driveway to make the yard private, but still give owners the ability to drive even the largest boat or caravan through to the rear yard. The garden and grounds have been left with tasteful but minimal planting and landscaping in place for the new owners to add the garaging or style of garden that suits their own individual requirements.
Only minutes from all modern conveniences including both Belmont and Swansea shopping precincts, award winning Belmont Golf Club, Belmont 16ft Sailing Club, a number of Bowling Clubs, lovely restaurants, thriving surf lifesaving club and short stroll to both beach and lake, you'll be spoilt for choice!
In summary, this cute cottage represents the best of modern beach living merged with the character and charm of yesteryear in a way that is rarely seen in this suburb for this price-point. Be quick to ensure you don t miss out!
