What's around Crescent Drive

House description

“Size & Position”

This is by no means a new home, but it could be your new home. Positioned on the southernmost tip of Russell Island, it is .2 km to Canaipa Passage with an uninterrupted view of the Southern end of North Stradbroke Island, a mere .3 km across the waterway, and .3 km from Sandy Beach Recreational Reserve. Imagine being lulled to sleep by the sound of the pounding surf from Straddie. It is impressive to hear that sound. Yes, I have listened to it. I want to live there myself.

This two-story brick home has a unique floor plan. The main entry is under the front deck and protected from the weather, or take the short external stairs from the landscaped north-side garden onto a welcoming verandah and enter through the glass sliding door directly into the lounge room on the top floor. After shopping, use the remote to open the garage door, drive straight into the 4-car lockup garage and take the internal staircase to the next level. The massive garage can easily handle two cars and a boat or two. For the boatie, why not park your deep sea fishing boat in first and have the tinnie ready for a quick hookup when the prawns are running? 

Downstairs, there is a workshop with fitted shelves and an area that could be a guest room with a private lounge room or a parent's retreat to get away from the noise upstairs. But why would you want to after you learn what is upstairs?

The internal stairs take you to the spacious upper level. It comprises of four bedrooms, two bathrooms, a lounge/dining room, and a kitchen. The open-plan living area has ceiling fans and air conditioning for the summer and a cosy wood fire for cold nights in June and July. (lol) The first thing you will notice is a blank canvas on the wall at the top of the stairs. "What is that? " I hear you say. It is a screen for the ceiling projector, so you can watch absolutely anything available on pay TV on the widescreen on the wall. Let the kids have downstairs; this belongs to Mum and Dad.

The kitchen is more of a galley than a full kitchen, but it has everything: a wall oven, an under-bench 6-burner gas stove, a dishwasher, plenty of pantry space, and laminated benchtops. The twin sink has a black hand-spray-like faucet, and a breakfast bar is at the entrance to the cooking space.

Follow the hallway from the loungeroom to the three bedrooms, laundry, and bathroom. You could use these as is for the interim, but with some creative re-designing, you could magically turn this into a stunning home.

The bathroom has a working shower and vanity, but it is waiting for your creative intervention. There is a separate toilet beside the laundry, slate flooring in the hallway, and wet rooms.

Off the lounge room is the main bedroom. It has an ensuite and a glass sliding door with balcony access, allowing natural light to awaken your slumber. Can you imagine lying back in bed and seeing the sun come up over Straddie? What a way to wake up.

All east-facing glass sliding doors open onto the back verandah, where cool breezes and breathtaking views of the surroundings make for a perfect setting for relaxation and outdoor gatherings.

Features:

The sound of the rolling surf in the distance.
Four car lock up garage.
Fully fenced.
Slate flooring is upstairs in the wet rooms and hall.
Extra large loungeroom with projector and screen for movies and sports.

Get the drinks and food ready, lay back in the recliner lounge and watch the Paris Olympic Games in style.

Who wouldn't want to live on a tropical island? Instead of driving in the hectic traffic on the mainland, you can take a pleasant ferry ride to the Redland Bay Terminal for a hit of hustle and bustle if you must,  or you could shop on the island. We have doctors, dentists, vets, health professionals, lawn bowls, a chemist, cafes, IGA and much more.

Don't take too long to think about this. It won't last long. If you don't ask, you don't get.
