Larger than most Merewether blocks, this classic weatherboard home rests on an impressive 786 sqm (approx.) parcel wrapped in beautifully established gardens. The backyard feels like a private sanctuary, where bromeliads, frangipani and hibiscus create a lush backdrop, birdbaths attract a constant chorus of native birdlife, and a charming Bali hut invites long lunches, quiet afternoons or entertaining with family and friends. It's easy to picture butterflies drifting through the garden, while whimsical wall art adds personality. A separate air-conditioned studio with power and water offers endless flexibility as a home office, creative studio, hobby space or peaceful retreat.
Cherished for 37 years, the home now offers its next owners the opportunity to enjoy its generous proportions while adding their own style over time. Currently configured with two large bedrooms, an exceptionally spacious lounge room and an open plan family, dining and kitchen, it also features wide doorways, front and rear ramps, and an accessible bathroom designed for wheelchair use.
The possibilities are as exciting as they are varied. Renovate and reconfigure the existing floorplan, extend at the rear to create additional accommodation, or follow the lead of neighbouring homes with a contemporary new beachside residence. With a generous 15.24m frontage, the site also presents potential to build two new homes (all subject to council approval.)
Merewether Beach and the Ocean Baths are just a 10-minute stroll away, morning coffee is waiting at Convoy Commune, and Llewellyn Street offers everyday essentials including IGA, BWS and casual dining. The Junction is only moments further, bringing boutique shopping, popular cafés, restaurants and sought-after schools within easy reach.
