The address in itself says it all - @ Number ONE ! Directly opposite Cosy Corner and the Torquay Surf beach, this iconic first floor unit is quite simply within THE best location in town. With beach and foreshore views in all directions from the front balcony and from inside, these tightly held units very seldom come onto the market. The very well presented unit offers a compact floor plan incorporating open plan living / dining, a very functional kitchen, a generous bedroom and a completely renovated bathroom (combined laundry, toilet and shower ). A rear sheltered balcony also offers lovely views out over Zeally Bay, an ideal position for a table and chairs, a morning coffee, post swim, and/or the perfect evening BBQ. Electronic security shutters and a Crim safe door provide exclusivity, privacy and allow for open windows to drift off to the crashing waves at your doorstep, for those who like a sound, relaxing sleep.....at the Beach! The unit has its own dedicated undercover two car length car park on title and the many Torquay shops, cafes, restaurants and the local hotel are just a few minutes' walk away. Walking tracks, parkland and the lovely outlooks off Point Danger and the surf beach foreshores over the Southern Ocean are literally just outside the front entry to the property- stunning attractions that are visited from all over the world! The property has attracted substantial income from Air BnB, with the current owners blocking out dates for the times they choose to visit, enjoy and simply relax. Permanent and / or holiday living permitted and general maintenance of the premises as a whole is covered in the owners corporation fees, as is building and public liability insurance. Common property areas also include lawn playing areas for the kids and a common vegetable / herb growing patch. Summary: Sensational views - A superb location - An affordable coastal offering.
NOTE : Vendor reserves the right to sell the property at any time.
