Overview

19.9 METRES OF FRONTAGE. 716SQM OF OPPORTUNITY.

Commanding an extraordinary 19.9-metre frontage on 716sqm (approx.), this is a Bayside opportunity of exceptional scale, flexibility and future potential. Whether you're a visionary renovator, prestige home builder or astute developer, the possibilities here are as impressive as the land itself. Set behind a broad triple-fronted façade, the property offers immediate versatility with a beautifully maintained three-bedroom weatherboard home, a separate two-bedroom rear dwelling ready for transformation, and an enormous five-car garage with workshop space that will excite tradies, collectors and hobbyists alike. Inside, the main residence delivers generous proportions and endless scope to add value. Enjoy a spacious formal lounge and dining domain, a family-sized kitchen with quality appliances, a timeless bathroom featuring an antique-style marble vanity, a separate WC, and a sun-filled rear sunroom offering exciting potential to create a spectacular open-plan family zone. Comfort is assured with central heating, air conditioning, woodfire heating and beautiful Australian hardwood floors. Outside, the opportunities continue. Renovate, repurpose or remove the rear dwelling to maximise the site's potential, while the supersized garage provides outstanding storage, workspace and vehicle accommodation. Move straight in, lease out, renovate for profit or plan your next landmark project. Create a luxury dream home with room for expansive indoor-outdoor entertaining, a pool, landscaped gardens and oversized garaging, or explore the exciting potential for a premium dual-occupancy development (STCA) taking full advantage of the wide frontage and substantial landholding. Adding even more appeal is the location.
