This was our first time selling a house with Lindsay (we have actually purchased two homes from him in the past), and as always it was just a pleasure dealing with Lindsay. He is very approachable, down to earth and knows our area well. He is not pushy like other real estate agents, which we like, and we know for a fact this is what helped sell our home. We would not hesitate to sell with Lindsay again and can highly recommend him to anyone wanting to sell their home. Sellers 16 Higlett Street Scarborough Verified by RateMyAgent
Excellent, professional, knowledgeable of property history, suburb and LGA
Very accomadating. My partner and I viewed the property 4 times in 10 days (including B & P inspection). Very punctual. We had engaged a buyers advocate. Great communication between the 3 parties. No delay in returning queries. Seemless work between the 2 conveyancing agents. My partner and I have been involved in all aspects of real estate in 2 capital cities. This is by far the easiest transaction and nicest property we have purchased. Buyers 16 Higlett Street Scarborough Verified by RateMyAgent
Fully renovated Palm Springs style home!
A comprehensive renovation inside and out has transformed this 1960 mid-century beach shack into a stunning contemporary oasis.
The home’s thoughtfully reimagined floor plan features two living spaces and three built-in bedrooms, remaining sympathetic to the era of the home while elevating its liveability and appeal with high-quality finishes and fixtures.
Beyond the distinctive custom-tiled entryway, you’ll find high ceilings throughout, wall panelling and clerestory windows, giving the home its cool retro-coastal vibe.
The brand-new kitchen features an engineered stone benchtop and splashback, along with premium Westinghouse cooking appliances and a Bosch integrated dishwasher. Practical storage solutions include a sleek appliance cupboard and large pantry with pull-out drawers. Adjacent to the kitchen is a European-style laundry cleverly concealed behind bifold doors.
The main bedroom oozes character with its VJ ceiling and lovingly restored original awning windows. A spacious ensuite features a double-basin wall-hung vanity and brass tapware, while a tall louvre window captures morning sun and ocean breezes.
Two further bedrooms include built-in wardrobes and remote-controlled ceiling fans, while the guest bathroom boasts sage green wall tiles, brushed brass fixtures, and a skylight.
Outside, Palm Springs-inspired landscaping and breeze blocks set the tone for stylish entertaining. Enjoy the firepit from a built-in bench seat in the back garden, then migrate to the generous deck for a meal with friends and family.
A separate backyard studio offers endless opportunities as a work-from-home office, yoga retreat, man cave, or hobby space. With reverse-cycle air conditioning and double-glazed windows and doors, the studio is perfectly insulated for every season.
There is the option to purchase all furniture/styling items making it a turnkey accommodation (ideal as a holiday house, or just move in and enjoy).
