Memories are made of this! Just three streets back from the beach, this vintage three-bedroom beach retreat has been fiercely held by the one family since the 1950s and is now offered for sale, complete with a lifetime of happy beach holiday memories distilled into the very essence of the home.

Quaint and quirky with a fun retro feel, the double storey home nestled among old world coastal gardens on 750 sqm. (approx.) provides a fabulous opportunity to shore up your summer while you take in the magic that is Merricks Beach and decide how the next chapter of this much-loved home will unfold.

Inside, features include a long open-plan living and dining zone connected to the compact but efficient kitchen by a handy servery window, while a second living area beside the stairs will make a great space for the little ones to play on a rainy day.

The master bedroom is a riot of color you can embrace or tone down and is just a few steps from the bright main bathroom, while upstairs two more bedrooms served by a handy powder room flow from a third living room where the sound of the nearby waves tumbling onto the shore provides the perfect backdrop to some well-earned R&R.

Other features include a cosy wood fire, reverse-cycle airconditioning, assorted garden sheds, ample rainwater storage and a double carport, while the covered rear deck is the perfect spot for umpiring some backyard cricket!
