Last Listing description (August 2026)

Auction Location: In-roomQuietly tucked away in a peaceful, elevated street, this much-loved home captures leafy outlooks, ocean glimpses and cooling northeasterly breezes that drift effortlessly through the interiors. Owned and occupied by the same couple since built, it has been the backdrop to four generations of family life, filled with decades of memories, celebrations and everyday moments.The dual-level design reveals far more space than you'd ever expect from the street, thoughtfully expanded over time to create a home that easily adapts to growing families. Four bedrooms, a dedicated study, three bathrooms and an expansive open plan living zone with oversized family room give everyone room to spread out, relax and come together. And while the setting feels wonderfully quiet and removed from the bustle, Merewether Beach and the Ocean Baths are still only an easy 20-minute stroll away.Most of the accommodation sits on the main entry level, elevated above an oversized double garage with separate workshop, large storage areas, laundry, study and third bathroom downstairs. At the centre of the home, the modern stone-topped kitchen with quality appliances overlooks the flowing living, dining and family spaces, creating a natural hub for everyday life and entertaining alike. Three bedrooms share the family bathroom with separate w/c, while the privately positioned main bedroom enjoys its own ensuite and direct connection to the family room and adjoining deck, where leafy views and sea breezes make it hard not to linger. Outside, there's additional off-street parking, a covered entertaining area and an easy-care backyard designed to keep weekends free.Surfing and swimming are part of the lifestyle here, while everyday convenience is just as impressive.
