Decades of original character meet a convenient street-front position here, where this charming 3 bedroom 1 bathroom Scarborough home so impressively lies.
There is plenty of potential and scope to add your own modern personal touches throughout, although the residence is in solid enough condition to either live in - or rent out - until your plans for something bigger down the track are eventually finalised.
Solid wooden floorboards and high ceilings from yesteryear remain, whilst the central kitchen has been pleasantly refurbished over time. At the rear, a fabulous deck enjoys splendid tree-lined inland views towards the coast and complements the main sunken back patio-entertaining area.
If a combination of privacy - with an entry gate securing the front yard - and coastal convenience are what you seek, then look no further. This is the one you have been searching for!
