Spacious rooms and high ornate ceilings embrace an abundance of natural light that warms each room of this beautifully renovated family home. Located minutes from the roar of the surf at Merewether beach in a quiet, family-friendly street, authentic elements fuse seamlessly with modern touches to create convenience, privacy and a superb lifestyle. Original polished floorboards unite the home connecting three gorgeous bedrooms complete with built-in robes, multiple living spaces and a modern open-plan kitchen and dining space. Snuggle up by the authentic facade of the gas fireplace, catch up on some reading or study by the bay window, or entertain friends and family in private on your rear deck as children play freely in the backyard. In the morning, slip through the french doors from your bedroom to enjoy breakfast on the quaint front porch privately nestled behind established magnolia trees or stroll down to the beach for a leisurely surf. A single lockup garage with an attached carport sits behind a locked gate in the backyard, offering off-street parking for extra vehicles. The potential is there to transform this garage space into a home office, teenager's retreat or an art studio with direct access for deliveries. This home offers a truly welcoming ambience with its lovely hues, leadlight windows and free-flowing layout. Add to that the closeness of walking distance to quality schools, leisure activities, boutique stores and trendy eateries; short walk to the oceans edge; the ultimate coastal lifestyle is at your fingertips.
