ABSOLUTE BEACHFRONT ON CINDERELLA ST.

Two bedroom cottage with dedicated office space, garage & large detached shed on 512sqm. Following an inundation the owners have had floor coverings removed, completely ruined cabinetry dismantled and the interior partially washed down and tidied up. The floors are now predominantly original timber and ready for a sand & polish. (a few boards have old damage and require replacement). The detached shed is of steel construction and is powered, the house has been very recently re-roofed and brought up to code. There is internal access from the single lock-up garage.
What an opportunity for a young couple or someone with the required trade skills to rejuvenate this great little cottage and secure their future in a fabulous, caring suburb. Why Machans Beach? … see below:
We have only lived in Machans for 6 months. Unfortunately, I needed to be evacuated from our newly purchased home to the hall after the floods. This is when I witnessed the Machans community spirit in action for the first time and then more so in the weeks since. A few people have said to us that we should sell up and leave! Why would we want to move back to a home that is prone to such devastation? To this I say No Way! We are staying. We will rebuild our home as resilient as we can and continue to be part of a beautiful, supportive and friendly community. THANK YOU Machans, and everyone outside of the village who has been helping us. We could not have gotten through without you.
