Auction Location: Friendly Auction Online - Live via Buy.Realtair.com Website Immersed in spectacular point-blank coastal views from the front and magical sunsets at the rear, 'Ocean View' epitomises the Australian dream for seaside living. Built in 1935 and architecturally renovated six years ago, come home to a showcase of brilliant natural light, mesmerising vistas, and with the shortest walk ever to Bar Beach, a lifestyle to love. Impeccably presented, the home boasts a spacious reverse floorplan with four robed bedrooms, two chic bathrooms and a rumpus on ground floor, and the main living area upstairs. Here, a magnificent arched window and wall-to-wall glazing bring in the ocean and beach views as your artwork. Pared with crisp décor and upscale touches, this coastal backdrop creates a soul-soothing oasis of calm and laidback beachside luxury. MasterChef's will appreciate the seriously impressive kitchen with wine fridge, two dishwashers, two ovens and a six-burner gas cooktop, as well as an island that doubles as a dining table, and as much prep and bench space as you can imagine. This central hub will allow you to share quality time – over breakfast, after an early morning swim or surf, homework sessions and family dinners. Slide open the stacker doors and be tempted outside. By day, the pool will have you feeling like you are in a tropical resort. As dusk settles, evenings are made for alfresco dinners on the deck with friends while soaking up city views and the sun setting over the distant mountains. And while everything here is indeed impressive including the four-car garage, what matters most is the is the feeling you get from the minute you arrive. It's distinctly special, with a lingering promise that magical family memories lie ahead. Your lifestyle here is going to be phenomenal. Just a few hundred metres separate you from the sand and surf, Empire Park, Cooks Hill Surf club and an assortment of lively eateries and boutique shopping at both Darby Street and The Junction. Live amongst the fresh coastal air and wake up late for your first appointment and still fit in an ocean swim or surf before work.
