Step into the world of endless possibilities with this super cool laid-back Palm Springs style home where most of the hard work is done but it still offers plenty of scope to add value and create your dream retro-style home. Elevated for all-day sun and views, and set on one of the suburb's top northern slopes streets, this very generous 190m2 cross-lease (No Body Corp) city pad is one of only 4 in an iconic row set in beautiful, lush sub-tropical grounds, being 1325m2 more or less,. This unique 3 bedroom, 2 bathroom home built with concrete block and brick invites you to experience the best of its era in large, airy, light-filled spaces where mid-century character combines with modern essentials and it's just a stroll from the waterfront and Herne Bay's bustling café & boutique strip. The Twist... With its own entry, kitchenette and bathroom/ laundry, a ground floor open plan studio/one bedroom area flows to covered sunny, outdoor living across polished concrete floors which look out over the landscaped grounds. A glazed stairway rises upstairs to sunny, north-west facing open-plan living which extends to a spacious, sunny terrace for easy end of the day relaxation. There is a modern family- size kitchen and bathroom and a super- size master bedroom also opening to the terrace upstairs. Downstairs a generous utility shed for all your tools and toys sits adjacent to the double carport. The overall set-up is perfect for extended family or as an easy income earner - keep as is or take the opportunity to upgrade and enjoy this gem of retro in the metro.
