Auction Details: Saturday May 18, onsite Bidding Guide:$1,650,000 Careel Bay is becoming really rather desirable. And this gem is at the most desirable end of George St, away from the hubbub and near to the boats! Just a short - really short! - walk to Careel Bay Marina (and possibly one of the cutest cafes in the area, The Kiosk) and yet only a 5 minute drive into Avalon Village, this architect designed rock solid late 1970s built home is an opportunity a-waiting... Set on the high side of the street, with a reserve on one side and gardens on the other and behind, this is an absolutely private sanctuary. With a welcoming pool at the front, north east facing decks, heaps of flexible living space, and a massive wine cellar, there's really not much need to leave once you're here…but if you really need to, Avalon, and Whale Beach, are very nearby. At ground level, there's a large double garage, heaps of off street parking, and a detached solid brick shed that will keep any bloke happy. Inside, there's a ground floor bedroom and a rumpus room opening to the paved pool area, which can easily used as a self contained area (in a previous life, this was a well known local B&B) or maybe a grandparent or teenager zone. Upstairs, there's a heap of flexible space, offering all sorts of potential for a rethink, a kitchen, laundry, and three bedrooms, including a master with en-suite, and another bathroom, and throughout, amazing high ceilings, skylights, ceiling fans, and gas powered reverse cycle heating and air-con. Outside at the back is a terraced garden, including a decent sized, near level lawn, and mature trees, offering absolute privacy. All in all, this property is great as is, but also has potential to add your own stamp, and innovate to suit your own requirements. Avalon Public and Barrenjoey High are each a 5 minute drive away, as are a choice of local shops and cafes. Buy now, chill later...
