Positioned on a 780sqm corner block in one of the highest points of this very popular suburb, this spacious home holds prime development potential should you wish to build new, renovate, extend upward, or simply have options for the future!.
Whatever your plans, you can't go wrong in this incredible position: across from a large park & playground, around the corner from Hale School, close to Churchlands Senior High School & Newman College... and only 5 mins from the beach. The addition of a second storey would also capitalise on the twinkling cityscape views.
Highlights include the home's large proportions, 2 living areas, generous room sizes, and striking design features. The decorative ceilings and wide bay windows capture that special essence of the 1960's era, as does the impressive marble-floored entrance, and the stunning fireplace in the formal lounge room (now fitted with instant gas).
Purpose-made for relaxed family entertaining, the backyard is reminiscent of a tropical resort - complete with rock gardens, palm trees, waterfall, and covered alfresco entertaining zone with built-in barbecue. In addition, there's a wide verandah at the front of the house, which captures exquisite morning sun in winter. Meanwhile, the hilltop position catches the sea breeze to keep everyone comfortable during the hotter months.
Last but not least, this is a family-oriented and friendly neighbourhood, where the neighbours still care to know your name and clear your letterbox while you're away. People love living here!
