Are you dreaming of an acreage type lifestyle that is impossible to find on the Peninsula? Whilst this is not acreage, it is the very next best option. Here we have a massive 956m2 block that adjoins manicured parkland. The kids can walk out the back gate and have immediate access to "adventureland" that someone else (council) is responsible for looking after. With massive open space to kick a footy, a proper play park, and the walking track that meanders along the creek and bushland all the way down to Clontarf beach, the location is incredible with hectares of open space immediately accessible..
The home is situated on a BIG block in a quiet street. We believe that it was built in 1972 and purchased by the current owner in 1977. Generations of the family have enjoyed this home and I am told (and can see) that it is outstanding for kids, teenagers in fact all generations. Like many homes of this era it is modest in size (we estimate around 100sqm) and appears very solidly built. Construction is vinyl cladding over timber chamferboard with a steel (colourbond style) roof.
The home is largely original and like many from this era will be a great base for a renovation. A massive bonus is that the interior walls and ceilings (outside of the wet areas) appear to be all gyprock (plasterboard). One only needs to look directly across the road to see what can be achieved with this style of home. For investors the home is perfectly rentable as it is, with maybe a change of carpet advisable. A rental appraisal is available upon request.
There are 2 carports plus parking underneath with a second toilet and great storage under the split level section. The garden is beautifully maintained and there is miles of room for the toys (cars, caravan, boat etc.).
Out the back there is the aforementioned tennis court. It's not quite full size (but it's close), I can imagine the kids and their neighbourhood friends using it for tennis, basketball, skateboarding take your pick! How many people can boast they have their own tennis court in Margate?
Now let's cut to the chase. What's it worth? This home has been priced to sell. The asking price is very genuine and reflects the home as it sits, there are no guessing games here. It's time for the owners to move on and the motivation is genuine.
My suggestion, come to the open home or contact us to arrange a private inspection and see it in person, we are happy with whatever works for you. Whatever you do though, DO NOT WAIT!
It's been nearly 50 years since the home has been offered for sale, I don't think you'd want to wait that long again for your next opportunity.
