Last Listing description (November 2021)

With the Summer holidays just around the corner, what better time to discover this little beach house gem! The property is found on a fabulous (flat) corner allotment of some 642m2 (approx) on the corner of Petrel Avenue and Whalers Road. Due to being on the corner, the sea views open up beautifully taking in "The Bluff". The home was built Circa 1972 and has recently undergone renovations which have included a new bathroom, window and sliding door from one of the bedrooms providing access to the back patio, insulation to the roof space, colorbond roof, installation of a new 3.5 Kw solar system, electric hot water service and a fabulous new 6.5m x 6.5m shed with two automatic roller doors and a 2.5m clearance.

Enter the home into the spacious living/dining room - lovely big windows provide views overlooking the front lawn and garden and beyond towards the ocean. A sliding door lets you into the kitchen - a new Chef oven with gas cooktop will impress. Move down the passageway and you will find the recently renovated bathroom with a shower alcove and vanity - the wc is separate to the bathroom. The two bedrooms are at the other end of the home - both of good size, both with reverse cycle split air-conditioners. The larger of the two bedrooms has a view of "The Bluff," while the second bedroom opens to the back patio and garden. Just off the laundry you will find another shower, which completes the internal floor plan. The polished boards and large picture windows add to the charm of this beauty - making it a really comfortable beach house getaway!

The property is zoned Housing Diversity Neighbourhood which allows semi-detached dwellings with a minimum site area of 220m2 and a 8m frontage. Should future development appeal, the allotment would be ideally suited to building a lovely detached dwelling (either single or two storey), or a pair of semi-detached dwellings, subject to Council consents.

The property is located only 100 metres from the esplanade along Franklin Parade, which is a fabulous spot for a walk or run, being so close to the iconic Yilki General Store and Beach House Caf. The boat ramp and Whalers Restaurant are equally close at hand, both being found at "The Bluff" - boaties will be able to have their boat in the water in a matter of minutes.

The new shed has a concrete floor with power connected, has skylights and a glass side sliding door and window on the side closest to the house. There is another single garage/workshop with a manual roller door and paved floor. Both sheds have valuable access from Whalers Road and are found behind the house.

Offering location and lifestyle, with future development opportunities should that be of interest. The perfect holiday escape, as well as being ideally suited for either holiday or permanent rental - that's a lot to like!
