They just couldn't help themselves! When our vendors clapped eyes on the views 23 years ago, they made an offer on the spot. But now it's time to downsize and hand over the dream (and more than two decades of hard work) to a lucky new family.
With a spacious two-tiered entertaining terrace out front and abundance of scenery-framing windows, you need never tear yourself away from the crush-worthy cityscapes and coastal panoramas stretching all the way to Outer Harbour. Even as you lay your head down at the end of the day, a sea of twinkling lights will lull you to sleep. Now, how do you put a price on that!
But we say: buy the views and we'll chip in the fully renovated 4-bedroom, 2-bathroom home complete with a palm-fringed pool, 11m x 3m entertaining veranda and air-conditioned flat that will give you a nice little income of around $10,000 p.a. or self-contained accommodation that Nana will love.
The word-class views and peaceful location opposite a reserve give the place a real holiday vibe, with the climate to match. Facing north, you get all the warming sun in winter while deep eaves and cooling gully breezes work their magic at the height of summer. There's barely need for the reverse cycle air!
The pool is also great for those hot days and little kids will love it as they can comfortably stand at the shallow end and swim to the other - it's only 2 metres deep - while family and friends relax on the deep veranda, with cafe blinds for all-weather comfort and pool fencing for ultimate peace of mind.
You can also keep an eye on pool and terrace fun from the centrally located entertainer's kitchen - a gorgeous modern workspace where you can dish up in style with metres of gorgeous Blue Pearl granite, a step-in pantry with sensor light and electric appliances including double ovens, a dishwasher and Insinkerator.
Living, dining and study spaces have been redesigned for open-plan appeal, with a gas-log fire for instant winter cheer and patio doors for a breezy indoor-outdoor flow when entertaining.
Complete with established gardens, an auto double garage and potential to add a second storey or redevelop STCC. Enjoy the convenience of commuting to your city workplace by train, local schools including Seacliff Primary and an IGA that is open 7 days a week.
You won't find an opportunity or views like these again but, don't take our word for it, come along and see for yourself this weekend!
