This amazing property, high against the mountain on Austin Road, may look very basic from the quiet street, but you're in for a very pleasant surprise once inside.
True, it's an older home in need of a lick of paint and a few modern updates, but it enjoys total privacy from the neighbours and offers incredible 180-degree views.
From the large windows in the open plan lounge and the main bedroom, you can see Lake Vancouver on the left, the beautiful white sand of Goode Beach in front of you and Frenchman's Bay on the right. At night, you can watch the moonlight on the sea and the twinkling lights of Albany in the distance - simply breathtaking.
Many Goode Beach properties enjoy a view, but the specific angle of this 811m2, private block makes it extra special.
The home is a solid brick-and-cement, two-storey building and comprises 3 bedrooms, 2 bathrooms and a single garage, with loads of storage space in the undercroft between the floors.
Upstairs, the large, private master en suite offers stunning views of the beach, even while lying in bed. A very generous open-plan lounge/dining area with a built-in fireplace and large windows forms the home's centrepiece. The neat but old-fashioned kitchen offers direct access to the garage, completing this floor.
Downstairs are two additional bedrooms, a shared bathroom and toilet, and a large laundry room. A sliding door opens onto a flat, front area where you can enjoy views of the garden and beach. What makes this property even more interesting is that the private downstairs area is also accessible from the side of the home, making it suitable for Airbnb, a multi-generational family, or a separate rental unit, if desired.
A cash buyer with vision made a generous offer on the spot, so this property is now unconditionally under offer and no longer available.
If you're considering selling - or know anyone who is considering selling a property in the Goode Beach or Frenchman's Bay areas, please let me know. I have another keen and ready client on my books.
