3 Bedroom Main House & Seperate Cottage with 3 bedrooms! FURNISHED OPTION IS AVAILABLE FOR NEGOTIATION.
You will imagine yourself in some remote paradise when you move into this sensitively renovated grand character home of 11 main rooms right on the beach.
Freshly restored to its former glory, the magnificent old return veranda villa circa 1910 comes with a detached, self-contained three-bedroom cottage, offering wonderfully flexible living and entertaining options.
Whatever your agenda, one of the great pleasures of this sublime property is when you drive into the auto double carport from Seaview Road and glimpse the ocean around the side of the house.
Stepping into the wide, tessellated entrance hall with its jeweled leadlight and high ornate ceiling, you are immediately aware that this is a home of distinction. It is all the more delightful, though not surprising, to discover a wealth of handsomely proportioned rooms with fine marble fireplaces and polished timber floors.
Three double bedrooms in the main house all offer built-in storage with the largest of these being the master; a gloriously spacious room with a pretty marble fireplace and twin door access to the northern veranda.
Beyond a doorway at the end of the hall, the mood changes from vintage character to sleek contemporary with the introduction of beautiful Italian porcelain floor tiles. These extend from the back hall, which has gated access to a dry wine cellar, through to the super stylish new family bathroom and fabulous new kitchen.
Featuring loads of off-white, two-pack storage, stainless steel appliances including a dual fuel range and an island bench incorporating a breakfast bar; French doors allow easy access to the rear veranda where you can set up for carefree summer entertaining.
Lying at right angles to the main residence, the cottage, which was probably the old servants’ quarters, is just as character-laden. Vibrant leadlight and a high, ornate mansard ceiling impart plenty of vintage character to the kitchenette, living area, and three bedrooms, serviced by a superb modern bathroom and separate toilet.
Ducted gas heating and evaporative cooling, instantaneous hot water, low maintenance gardens. three-phase power and a security alarm are also provided for your comfort, convenience and peace of mind. Rear access from Seaview Road through remote double carport complete this picture.
