THE LOCATION
Live a glorious life by the seaside on the South City Beach Waterfront. Enjoy the 180 degree private panorama of the surrounding coastal dune systems and ocean, as the only things to occupy your field of vision…there is solitude here...
Swim before breakfast. Catch fish for dinner. Beachcomb after winter storms. A short stroll to acres of romantic untouched beaches and a bicycle ride to some of Perth's best private schools, this beachfront allotment is one to lock up for the future!
Stroll down South City's most whisper-quiet beach track for your rejuvenating morning swim each day. Drop a cray pot just off shore on the little known reef that yields success. On the weekends, turn right for breakfast at Odyssea, Hamptons or Clancy's or turn left for a leisurely stroll up to the Shorehouse, Swanbourne. Drop the kids to school in Claremont in around 8 minutes and linger afterwards for some shopping or a coffee with friends.
Truly a magical and once in a lifetime opportunity, City Beach is the closest beachfront to the heart of Perth City, so your asset is sure to forever attract buyers with big inner city incomes who wish to live by the coast, protecting its value forever. Within the suburb of some 2200 homes there are a limited 250 in the rare enclave oceanside of the highway known as South City Beach. Within South City Beach there are only around 30 oceanfront homes. And of these only 15 with land parcels greater than 800sqm! Allow yourself to become one of the lucky few!
THE HOME
This circa 1960 home is a classic of the era! Full of period charm. High surround windows flood the home with natural light. Cool industrial style steel doors hark back to the days of artisan fabrication and provide a feeling of substance. Exposed concrete floors under foot. Interiors and exteriors in crisp seaside whites give a relaxed and calming vacation vibe. An attractive beach shack rental whilst you design plans for your new home.
THE POTENTIAL
This is surely the best oceanfront location in Perth to build that magnificent architectural family home you have always dreamed of! Build a modern family home with Dual views; 180 degree views of sunrises over Reabold Hill & Bold Park bushland to the rear AND 180 degree views of the sun setting over the ocean out the front! You could never ever overcapitalise on this oceanfront South City Beach site! (We recently sold a luxury home in South City - but not on the oceanfront - for around $10M. What could the next luxury home actually on the oceanfront go for?!)
The topography of this block is great for construction. The high part at the front 2/3 of the block capitalises on all the amazing views. The lower 1/3 of the block to the rear is a fantastic opportunity for big underground garaging, levelling off the site with a concrete roof and pool and outdoor entertaining above, protected from the elements and basking in the north easterly sunshine.
Alternately you might even choose to renovate/ extend/ landscape and maximise this classic mid-century modern home's Palm Springs aesthetic, perhaps even ad a pool and give the home a Slim Aarons vibe!
Or just keep it simple, move in as is, enjoying a paired back coastal existence by the sea in this mid-century architectural beach home flooded with natural light on its massive 923 sqm landholding.
