1,188m² of Opportunity - A Stone's Throw from the Esplanade
Just a one-minute walk (less than 100 metres) from the sparkling waters of the Hornibrook Esplanade and Pelican Park, 4 Laura Street, Clontarf offers a lifestyle most can only dream of. Whether it's morning strolls along the foreshore, picnics under the trees, or weekend events like KiteFest, this is bayside living at its best — and it's all right at your doorstep.
Set on a rare 1,188m² double block (two lots on one title) with a generous 28.2m frontage, this is the very first time this much-loved home has been offered to the market for sale. Full of warmth and character, this home offers excellent long-term potential in one of Clontarf's most tightly held pockets.
Step inside and you'll instantly feel the personality that makes this home so special. The spacious open-plan lounge and dining area flows out to a breezy covered front porch, while the rear of the home opens to a large covered patio overlooking the generous backyard — perfect for relaxed entertaining. Throughout the home, there are delightful touches of Art Deco or early post-war design influence: high ceilings with ornate cornices and ceiling roses, hand-crafted timber detailing, and a stunning decorative fireplace framed by a stained glass feature — a timeless centrepiece that speaks to the home's unique past.
The original retro-style kitchen, complete with built-in booth seating, is a nostalgic nod to a simpler era — and beautifully preserved. This is a home that tells a story, and for those who value craftsmanship, charm, and history, it's a rare and rewarding find.
There are three generous bedrooms, one central bathroom with both a shower and bathtub, and a separate powder room for added convenience. Other features include air-conditioning, ceiling fans, a remote double garage, side access, powered workshop, water tank, greenhouse, and storage shed. The gardens have been neatly manicured and well maintained, adding to the home's inviting street appeal without being high-maintenance.
You're also just a short walk to Clontarf Beach and Bells Beach, with schools, cafés, shops, and transport all nearby. Whether you're looking to move straight in, rent it out, or explore future development potential (STCA), this location and land size make for a smart and flexible buy.
Homes on blocks this size, in locations this close to the water, are becoming increasingly rare. 4 Laura Street offers the charm of yesteryear, the convenience of today, and the possibilities of tomorrow.
Don't miss your chance to secure something truly special in the heart of Clontarf.
