Endless Potential, Just Metres From Ocean’s Edge!
With only one house separating you from the beautiful white sandy beach and your front door, you will find the commanding corner position of this character-laden 4 bedroom 2 bathroom home very impressive, with breathtaking ocean views and magical sunsets allowing you to experience the best in seaside living both now and in the future.
A massive 999sqm block is the perfect platform, whether you decide to add your own personal modern touches to this established gem or one day build your dream family residence here or potentially subdivide into 2 or 3 blocks.
High ceilings and solid wooden floorboards are commonplace throughout and help preserve the property’s original charm and nostalgia.
A separate study sits off the entry together with a spacious front lounge room with a Vulcan gas heater, a striking timber feature wall and amazing views out to the ocean and Rottnest from within. The adjacent dining room is kept comfortable all year round by split-system air-conditioning and opens out to a delightful west-facing balcony terrace that is tiled, semi-covered and offers a fantastic vantage point – along with soothing sea breezes that help cool down the entire house in summer.
A functional open plan kitchen with its double sinks, tiled splashbacks, walk-in pantry, Chef electric cooktop, double Westinghouse ovens, stainless-steel Electrolux range hood, stainless-steel Bosch dishwasher and access into a huge laundry-come-second bathroom with a large double linen press, double stainless-steel wash troughs, an extra shower, separate toilet and a small tiled alcove just outside – eventually spilling out to a spacious and protected timber deck that can be utilised as either a drying courtyard or another private entertaining area.
The pick of the sleeping quarters is a generous rear master bedroom with a walk-in wardrobe and its own back balcony. Downstairs, an enormous remote-controlled under-croft lock-up garage boasts high ceilings, internal shopper’s entry and laneway access from the rear of the property. There is also a massive powered storeroom – or workshop – off here, with ample driveway parking space complemented by current space for a large trailer next to the lush backyard lawns, as well as the potential for boat or caravan parking.
Those into fishing will fully appreciate the Marmion Angling and Aquatic Club being only footsteps away, while there are terrific launching facilities at nearby Hillarys Boat Harbour. Complementing a short walk to quality coastal cafes and restaurants is a very close proximity to the marina itself, as well as Sorrento Primary School, Sorrento Beach, bus stops, the lovely Robin Reserve around the corner, the magnificent Sacred Heart College, Duncraig Senior High School, community sporting facilities and major shopping centres. The coast has never been clearer – this is where your family’s future lies!
