Situated on a flat 701 sqm corner allotment in a fantastic pocket of the tranquil bayside suburb of Birkdale is this circa 1970’s solid brick veneer three-bedroom home. With the water’s edge only a short 7-minute drive away, this property could present the sea change you have been dreaming of.
Neatly maintained inside and out, the home features many delightfully authentic 70’s fittings and fixtures throughout including amber glass windows to the sunroom, mosaic tiles, splashes of pastels, funky light fittings, and colourful shag carpets.
An open plan living and dining area opens up to a wonderful north-facing sunroom and sits alongside the spacious kitchen which was updated in 2000. Featuring an abundance of storage and a Westinghouse wall oven and electric cooktop, the kitchen is neat and functional. There is also external access off the dining area down to the backyard.
All three of the bedrooms are of a good size and offer built-in wardrobes, ceiling fans and are serviced by the main bathroom which features a separate shower and bathtub, corner vanity and separate toilet.
A large rumpus/games area takes up half of the downstairs space and is afforded direct access to the yard. Child and pet friendly, the yard has great lawn space and mature landscaping including established fruiting orange and mandarin trees.
A double lock up garage, second bathroom with shower and toilet, laundry and workbench complete the home.
The fantastic location is within walking distance to parks and sporting fields and also offers a number of local shops and major retailers close at hand.
