What we love...
The brilliant blank canvas on offer. This quirky two-storey residence at the crest of the hill is to be sold "as is" and, following a fresh lick of paint and the addition of your own floor coverings, can be transformed into the family haven of your dreams. The stunning ocean views from upstairs are simply an added bonus.
There is a distinct Mediterranean feel about the property as soon as you step foot inside, with its grand staircase leading up to the main sleeping quarters where separate guest and master bedroom suites are complemented by two further bedrooms, a renovated and fully-tiled "main" bathroom and a lovely master balcony with an awe-inspiring coastal vista over Scarborough, the iconic Observation City building and towards the glistening Indian Ocean waters. Downstairs, the two massive living areas both seamlessly extend outdoors in their own way - the open family and activity room out to an enormous backyard and the sunken front lounge room to a gorgeous north-facing Zen alfresco courtyard where private entertaining meets a pond, protective shade sail and gated access to the driveway.
What to know...
Beyond the parquetry flooring of the statement entry lies a splendid open-plan kitchen and dining area where your own modern personal touches would be appreciated alongside a six-burner Electrolux gas cooktop and oven, a range hood, a stainless-steel Miele dishwasher, a walk-in pantry and an eclectic use of timber. Downstairs, there is also a gas fireplace to the lounge (as well as wooden sliding doors and high feature bulkhead ceilings), a burning corner log fireplace to the family/activity room (with built-in storage), a separate laundry, a large carpeted fifth bedroom and a contemporary fourth bathroom with a shower, toilet, vanity and under-stair storage. Even the backyard has sea views, with a future swimming pool not looking out of place either - there is certainly plenty of room for it! Extras include ceiling fans and walk-in wardrobes to the master and guest suites upstairs, revamped fully-tiled ensuite bathrooms with rain showers, feature white plantation shutters, high ceilings, profile doors, timber door frames and a security-alarm system. Walking distance to top schools, lush parks, bus stops, restaurants and more is just the icing on the cake.
