What to love
Every home worth renovating starts with the same thing - a block that earns its keep and a layout that already makes sense. This one delivers both. Sitting on roughly 720sqm in one of Ocean Reef's most convenient pockets, this three bedroom, one bathroom home has the bones, the block size and the location.
Walk in and you'll find two distinct living spaces already working in your favour. A bright front lounge catches natural light through generous windows, offering a quiet spot away from the daily hum of family life. Further through, an open-plan kitchen, dining and living area opens up with the kind of proportions that make entertaining easy and everyday living comfortable. The kitchen is well-proportioned with ample space and storage, made for those who enjoy cooking, while the living zone flows naturally out to a large covered patio.
The master bedroom comes with its own ensuite, and all three bedrooms are well-sized and sensibly placed. Here's where it gets interesting: a separate laundry sits behind the front living area, creating genuine scope to reconfigure into a four bedroom, two bathroom home without needing to reinvent the floorplan. That kind of built-in flexibility is rare and valuable.
Outside, there's a large front lawn framed by low-maintenance garden beds, while the rear yard stretches out with enough grass for kids and dogs to claim as their own. A carport feeds directly into a large roller door shed - big enough to house a car and still leave room for the tools, the workbench and everything else that accumulates over the years. A second garden shed handles the overflow.
This is a home where the hard decisions have already been made - the location, the land, the bones. What comes next is up to you.
