Ocean views across Geographe Bay could be yours if you were to extend this renovated home to include a second storey.
With four bedrooms and two bathrooms, as well as one outdoor and two indoor living areas, this house has been lovingly cared for by its current owners.
As you enter the house, timber laminate extends throughout the entrance hallway, where an L-shaped carpeted formal lounge and dining room with reverse-cycle air conditioner is on the right.
A little further down on the left, you will find the master suite with built-in robes which features a renovated ensuite with heat light and stylish shower screen. This hallway leads into the open-plan kitchen and family room which includes a reverse-cycle cassette air conditioner and a skylight. This central hub also opens into a huge protected alfresco area as well as into the minor bedroom wing.
The kitchen includes a walk-in pantry, microwave recess, a servery window through to the formal dining room, a dishwasher and a fridge/freezer recess as well as stainless-steel light fittings and a ceramic cook top with stainless-steel sliding extractor fan. The outstanding features though, are the extensive cupboards including overheads with glass display fronts and a large island bench which has plenty of storage space underneath. This is a dream kitchen with plenty of bench space and a home for every appliance.
The bedroom wing includes two double-sized carpeted bedrooms with built-in robes as well as a third queen-sized bedroom with timber laminate and a sliding door that opens into a veranda, extending along the back of the house. These bedrooms surround a renovated bathroom which is spacious and inviting. It includes a toilet, however in this part of the home there is another separate toilet and a wide linen cupboard.
Behind a sliding door in this wing is a wide tiled laundry which provides access into an exterior side alley which includes built-in linen and utility cupboards.
The north facing backyard has established and private gardens and boasts a 5mx7m powered shed in front of a separate powered 3mx5m studio complete with lined walls and ceiling. This would make an ideal place for an artist or tradesman to work or a teenagers retreat.
The lawn, trees, flowering shrubs and veggie beds are automatically reticulated from a bore and there is nothing but the sound of birds and crickets for you to listen to as you enjoy a quiet cuppa in your huge 8mx8m outdoor living room.
A garage with automatic roller door and room for two vehicles opens at the rear into the outdoor living room, where you could pull the boat or caravan through when required. This access makes it easy to get the groceries from the car to the kitchen and to stay warm and dry in winter.
The low-maintenance front garden comprises mostly natives which attracts birds and keeps the water bills low. The faade of the home has not yet been renovated and combined with the easy care gardens and paved driveway, does not reflect the luxury and comfort afforded by its interior. It does however, make it easy to maintain and would be ideal for a busy family, working couple or retirees who want to lock and leave.
As an added bonus for young families and grandparents, a shady park with a playground, picnic bench and plenty of room for the kids to run around is situated directly across the road and of course the huge water playground which is the ocean is only a short stroll away.
This home is not only located in a sought-after pocket on the beach side of the highway, it ticks all the boxes and is priced to sell.
