A true diamond-in-the-rough opportunity in one of Lauderdale's finest streets, this 1951 weatherboard cottage sits just footsteps from both Roches and Lauderdale beaches on a level 673m² allotment.
While the one-bedroom home is ready for a major renovation or fresh start, its position towards the front of the block means there's plenty of scope in the yard to reimagine the property into something truly special. The fertile soil has been well-loved over the years, producing an abundance of fruit and vegetables that even the neighbours once happily contributed coins towards. Multiple garden beds, greenhouses, and a light-filled covered potting shed make it a haven for keen gardeners or perhaps the perfect setting for an art studio or creative retreat.
Adding even more appeal, the oversized brick garage is sturdy, powered, and big enough to double as a workshop or hobby space. Car enthusiasts will appreciate being able to toil away at night or in any weather, with the added possibility of temporary accommodation while the main house is renovated (STCA). Off-street parking for several vehicles adds to the practicality.
The property is immediately liveable and presents as a highly sought-after renovation project with genuine scope to transform and add considerable value. To help buyers move forward with confidence, the vendor has arranged an independent building inspection report, which will be made available to interested parties.
This is a rare chance for first-home buyers with imagination, or anyone ready to roll up their sleeves and unlock the potential of a blue-chip location. With golden sand and crystal-clear water just a short stroll from your front gate, you'll be living in one of Lauderdale's most enviable pockets, where the street does the talking and the home invites your vision.
