17 Cessnock Close, Mermaid Waters QLD 4218

Location, location and location is the confidently recognised real estate mantra and this air-conditioned two storey north facing home with 15.5m of water frontage gracefully occupies an exceptional position central to major shopping centres such as Pacific Fair and Q Centre and close to Broadbeach and Surfers Paradises' incomparable beaches, schools and innumerable cafes and restaurants. In excellent company among contemporary sophisticated town houses, stunning new multi-storey apartments and prestigious multi-million dollar residences, Cessnock Close is a tightly held street of quality homes, some, like this, offering outstanding potential and awaiting the renovation that will restore them to their former star status.

The impression of infinite space is immediate upon entry here, your gaze drawn through the free-flowing window-walled open plan downstairs living area to the water and up to the 5.5 metre ceiling void and curved balustrade of the suspended second storey. Downstairs, scenic family living is classy and practical with tiled floors throughout. Overseeing the dining and family living areas, the kitchen is spacious and generously equipped with granite benchtops and custom made cabinetry and will repay its restorer ten-fold for its modernization. Sliding doors in this ultra-spacious area spill out to a timber deck which wraps around a sparkling pool and Balinese gazebo - stylish entertaining indeed! Also opening out to the fully fenced pool is a fabulous Crimsafe-walled indoor/outdoor room.

Completing this level, an expansive master bedroom with walk-in robe and spa ensuite slides outdoors to a covered patio to enjoy the poolside terrace and serene water views. There's also a second bedroom with built-in robes, a bathroom and laundry with outdoor access.

A curved timber staircase leads upstairs to a second living area and a second scenic master bedroom/parents retreat with walk-in robe, ensuite and sitting area. Two further spacious bedrooms are separated by a bathroom with both bath and separate shower. Offering a dual living option, there's also a fully equipped kitchen on this level.

This is an extremely versatile home offering all manner of configurations to suit the requirements of its next fortunate owner who will recognise its potential for substantial financial appreciation and restore this faded beauty to its privileged blue ribbon status.
