Phone enquiry code for this property : 9855

Situated in Brighton with sunset views across the Tinchi Tamba wetlands, 7 Ambrose Street offers more than abundant space, character and privacy - the best of bayside living.

This property is perfect for those running a space hungry home business or for a large family looking for room enough for 5+ bedrooms with minimal alterations required.

Positioned at the end of short cul-de-sac with 310m square metres of living space on a generous 645 square metre landscaped block, this home boasts 2 discrete levels, kitchens and bathrooms on each floor and an additional large stand alone external studio.

The current owners run a design and letterpress printing business downstairs with separate living upstairs. Upstairs is light and breezy with polished wooden floors whilst downstairs presents as cool and shady with designer Corten tiles or concrete flooring. Each level has been finished with spacious undercover timber decks to maximise outdoor living and reduce the ambient temperature within.

UPSTAIRS
A galley kitchen flows into the open plan dining and lounge area with stunning views across the wetlands to the mountains in the west. From the dining area, triple panel glass sliding doors open onto a large covered “L” shaped deck with a south westerly aspect.

Sea breezes rarely fail to find 7 Ambrose Street but all rooms and living areas are air conditioned.

Bedroom 1 easily fits a king size bed. Nib walls form matching storage alcoves and also frame the view to the west. Like bedroom 1, bedroom 2 also features nib walls that frame the western view but provides a storage and study alcove option instead. This room happy accommodates a queen size bed. Bedroom 3 is open plan and captures the best of the sea breezes from the north east.

Upstairs has a tidy but older separate WC and bathroom with shower stall.

DOWNSTAIRS
Originally a postwar 3 bedroom home, number 7 was raised 9 years ago to create 2 very large downstairs work studios, a fresh second bathroom with bath and laundry. Both downstairs studios rarely require air conditioning but split system units are installed.

For ease of entertaining and somewhere to store all those extra appliances, the main downstairs studio includes a kitchenette with ample cupboards and a double glass sliding door that opens onto the lower deck. At 4.7 x 7.5m, Studio 1 is large enough to create separate bedroom and living areas.

Studio 2 has all the bones required to be converted into another very large living area (4.8 x 7m) or for those creative souls who just need another workshop it features an artists wash-up tub and a storage alcove (1.5 x 1.6m).

An additional storage room (2.4 x 1.6m), large enough for bicycles etc can also be accessed on the lower deck.

EXTERNAL STUDIO
1 year ago an additional external studio with a covered patio area at the rear of the property was added. Light and bright, this studio has a painted concrete floor, windows, a roller door and a very clever ceiling storage solution.

This new studio would be fabulous bedroom or retreat. It has been fitted with ambient control down-lights and wired for air conditioning in case future installation is required. It is powered but not plumbed.

GARDENS
As you roll down Ambrose, number 7 is set back off the street and surrounded by low maintenance, well established Australian Native landscaped gardens complete with irrigation systems. In addition to the flowering natives trees filled with honey eaters all year round, an elevated vegetable garden and olive tree sit at the north eastern corner around a small sunken fire pit. A water tank, compost bays and a garden shed make this home a gardener’s dream.

The property is significantly elevated above a section of the Deagon Deviation and an avenue of established native trees have been planted to disguise the highway fence that runs along the western property perimeter.
