Home makers will revel in the size of this property and the potential to create an absolute masterpiece for their family from the solid foundations of this estate. Boasting a dual frontage, there is a secondary entry with parking that leads through to the outdoor entertaining area surrounded with colourful gardens and providing a space for the family dinners, Christmas and birthday parties! A walkway connects to the home bypassing the in ground swimming pool and a courtyard style garden with a gorgeous flowering vine trellising down from the first floor. Under the home is a two bedroom self contained granny flat with its own bathroom and kitchen amenities along with access to a full 3rd bathroom and storage room plus the under home entertaining areas and parking bays.
Upstairs the home has nostalgic notes that will appeal to the Territorians – timber clad walls, carpeted flooring and old school vibes in the bathrooms will hit all those iconic notes as you move through this expansive first floor. The kitchen has dark timber tones with bays of built in storage space and wrap around counters with plenty of prep space. The dining room sits adjacent with access to the rear patio and stairs. The living room has carpeted flooring and access to the front balcony with sea breezes and views between the treetops of a towering pine.
Down the hallway are 3 bedrooms all with carpeted flooring and built in robes. The master bedroom has a door through to a small landing with sea views – imagine a large window or an extended balcony here – the views are epic!.
Walk up the road to explore the coastline with the sea breezes whipping through. The Nightcliff Swimming Pool is nearby along with the Foreshore Café for a great meal or cheeky coffee. Enjoy the sunsets over the water from the Jetty and find a local pop up food van for an easy meal while you watch the waves crash against the foreshore. 10 minutes from Casuarina, the RDH and CDU campus.
