Fabulous Big Level Block, Family & Retiree Friendly Home, Quiet Cul-De-Sac Location, Easy Stroll to Cafes, Conveniences, Transport & The Bay!
Set on a sprawling, nearly 800m² block, in a fantastic, quiet and beautifully level street, with a wonderful blend of retirees and families as your neighbours, older homes here are being extensively renovated, and transformed into the very best of contemporary, meets quaint charming lakeside cottages.
When you see people investing in renovations, extensions, and in some cases knock down rebuilds, it gives you confidence, the location is highly desirable.
Instead of selling up, and upsizing elsewhere, original owners have chosen to stay put, and newcomers have chosen to buy here, and play with the potential of their properties, because they love the quiet and friendly neighbourhood, and the flat level blocks, that let you enjoy big single level living and easy level access back to to cafes and shops on the main village strip.
This particular cottage, is one you shouldn’t judge from the front, as a drive by gives very little away about the spacious and light filled, relatively open living, that flows from front to back, or beyond to the magnificent, big, flat and very private backyard, with oodles of garaging and parking off street that you can’t see from the front.
We were surprised by the size, with a gutsy front lounge room, drenched in natural light, enjoying warm winter sun and cool summer seabreezes, the generous master bedroom enjoying this same amazing North aspect and full width built in robes, right beside the bathroom, that could very easily be converted into an ensuite.
Like the master, bedrooms 2 and 3 are also generous in size, with a bedroom size rear second living area, office or playroom an unexpected extra bonus.
Living flows from front to rear, with openings between the large lounge, dining and kitchen, which could be further opened up, and for those who want or need even more space, expand out the back and create a massive open plan rear living area and back deck, without having to build up, if you keep it at 20% of the current size of the home.
The backyard is like a fruit and vegetable shop, with beautifully established fig and olive trees, other very well established shrubbery provides immense privacy and it looks like you can pretty much grow anything here, with the soil seeming to be rich and fertile, there’s room for the puppies, some chooks, and the kids or grandkids too!
Unlike so many of the houses for sale in Swansea, where the street is busy, with too many cars whizzing past, or the block is small, or awkward and irregularly shaped, this location and block are both exactly what most of us want, with plenty of room, a great quiet and friendly neighbourhood, with easy access to everything you need day to day.
Grandparents can easily stroll to Coles Supermarket on the flat the whole way, have a bite to eat and a coffee at Seed Cafe, or lunch at the Swansea Hotel or RSL, stopping in at the library and post office, with doctors, dentists and everything you need day to day all within minutes of flat walking from home!
Kids and grandkids can easily ride their bikes safely to high school and the beach from here, going under the highway on quiet back streets, with mums and dads able to effortlessly push prams on the flat to pre-schools, and day care nearby, in both Swansea and Caves Beach too.
An easy walk to your choice of primary schools, at Swansea, Caves Beach and St Patrick’s Catholic School, boat ramps, beaches, bays and The Channel sand Islands are all only a few minutes drive from home, so your weekends will be covered too.
A lifestyle mecca, and a great escape from the hustle and bustle of Sydney, Newcastle and the Central Coast, where prices are far more reasonable, people are happy and there’s no high rise apartments or over development surrounding you, or the crowds and congestion that come with this.
Whether you’re starting out or slowing down, or you’re somewhere in between and just changing up your lifestyle, why wouldn’t you want to call this place home ….
