With an absolutely fabulous position enjoying magnificent ocean views, this is undoubtedly one of the most special properties to come on the market, probably unlike any other you could find. It is a unit, but it was designed and built to be a home – one with many special features. There are two separate units on the one title. Use both units for your home, rent out either one or both of them, or they would make great holiday rentals.
The original owner wanted their own special unit when they built the complex. Unit 1 actually has two one bedroom units – with your own exclusive-use pool positioned between the two. Both units can be occupied separately if you wish – they also both have their own private entrance stairways. The other four units in the complex are separated from this unit.
THE PROPERTY
• Positioned on the much sought-after elevated section of Flinders Parade, this east facing property has views down onto Queens Beach North and out to the ocean, then easterly over the beachfront park, and sweeping north towards Scarborough beach – a full 180 degree panorama.
• There are 5 units in the block – 4 set in the wing at the back and Unit 1 in a separate freestanding building at the front, with the pool connecting it to (what has been labelled for ease of description) Unit 1A, which is at the rear.
• Unit 1 in total has an area of 341m2 – which includes both of the units and the pool areas
• The complex is a late 1970’s solid brick construction – extremely well constructed and in very good condition
• Both units still have the original 70’s decor, with a few minor changes along the way
• Unit 1, with its position at the front, is surrounded by lovely gardens and lawns
UNIT 1
• This is the most spacious of the two units – approximately 75m2 on upstairs level
• Entry is via its own stairway up to the patio where you will see those fabulous views
• Large front patio – with a small eastern facing section and the larger part facing north – perfectly positioned to capture the best weather conditions – sunshine and breezes
• Open plan living and kitchen – mostly the original cabinetry and tiles – yes it’s definitely 1970’s vintage
• One bedroom – walk-through wardrobe – bathroom with shower, toilet and vanity
UNIT 1A
• This is a smaller unit (similar to another 1 bedroom unit in the complex) – approximately 44m2 plus the front balcony area
• Entry via its own stairway coming off the complex driveway
• Own balcony area at the front overlooking the pool, and with good beach views
• Open plan living and kitchen
• One bedroom, bathroom – shower, toilet and vanity
• Back door to rear common balcony and back stairway exit
POOL
• The pool is positioned between the two units and can be accessed from both of them (but not by other unit) – 7m x 4m in size
• Pool house on ground level - located off the front garden
DOWNSTAIRS – UNDER UNIT 1
• There is a large laundry/multipurpose room – suitable for many purposes
• A very large double garage with two roller doors – this is currently divided into two sections as each of the units was allocated one space by the current owners. The two garages could be used in whatever way the owner determined.
• A toilet and vanity are positioned in a room off the garage
• Washing machine and dryer for Unit 1A currently located here
This home is located in what must be one of the best positions on the Redcliffe Peninsular. It overlooks Queens Beach North, a long section of golden sand suitable for swimming as well as a range of other beach activities including it being a dog beach. Directly across the road is a lovely park with a stairway leading down to the very private Drury Point Beach which has recently had a major makeover with beach nourishment taking place. Scarborough Beach is only 500m to the north.
The beachfront walk leads south to Redcliffe with its numerous cafes and restaurants as well as a wide variety of shops. Heading in the other direction is Scarborough Village with a mix of cafes and small businesses, and a wonderfully vibrant local community feeling. The Scarborough/Redcliffe area has many added attractions and services –including boat marinas, sporting clubs, water sports, and great cycling opportunities, plus much more. Brisbane City is only a 40 minute drive away and the airport around 25 minutes. Public transport is well catered for as well with local buses plus a train service from Kippa Ring Station, and there is easy access to the motorways north and south.
This is a home that you could move into straight away, or you could look at either minor or major renovations. Perhaps you wish to take advantage of this very special opportunity and create the home of your dreams in a property location that cannot be duplicated.
Watch the sun rise out of the ocean in the morning, the ever-changing colours of the sky and ocean, the boats and ships sailing past, the full moon rising from the sea, the lights of the night on the sea and land, and the wide open sky and stars at night. You will find that no two days will be the same but all will be entrancing.
Margaret will be holding regular Open Houses, but you are very welcome to phone, text or email and she will be happy to arrange an inspection at a time that is suitable to you.
