Positioned on an elevated site overlooking the harbour and city skyline, this unique property has a lot to offer. Featuring a stylish renovated character cottage, an architectural studio/granny flat, plus vacant land - with subdivision approval and services at the ready, there is plenty of opportunity here.
Situated just 700m from the historic café and restaurant strip along Stirling Terrace, and only a short scenic drive to Middleton Beach, the location offers a desirable South Coast lifestyle with convenience, views, and character all in equal measure.
The cottage, originally built in the 1940s, has undergone an extensive renovation with no expense spared to create a residence that feels refined and welcoming. Jarrah floorboards flow throughout light-filled living spaces, including the enclosed verandah which provides a stunning vantage point and outlook across the harbour and treetops.
The spacious kitchen is well positioned to service the dining area and sunny rear patio and includes a dishwasher, electric oven, gas cook top and a large fridge recess to make modern living simple.
A large master bedroom is positioned at the front of the home - taking further advantage of the views, with a semi ensuite bathroom shared by the smaller second bedroom.
Upgrades to the main dwelling include restumping, recladding, reroofing, complete insulation, installation of solar panels, heat pump hot water system, reverse cycle air conditioning, and a substantial 40,000L water tank discreetly positioned beneath the home.
In addition, an architectural studio tucks neatly beyond the main dwelling and double carport, adding exceptional versatility to the property. Striking oversized windows capture the view and garden outlooks while the modern interior and edgy design stylishly juxtaposes against the original cottage.
Equipped with a modern bathroom, kitchenette and a built-in seating, the studio would be ideal for guest accommodation, home office, creative retreat, short stay accommodation, or as a lock-and-leave base for you to come and go while leasing the main residence. For comfort the space has ducted heating/cooling and an independent hot water system.
Further enhancing the property's appeal is the potential to subdivide the remaining vacant portion of the land (approximately 341m2). With services and a sealed driveway already in place, and a conditional subdivision approval valid until mid 2027, there is flexibility and long-term value to be considered.
