Feature Property of the Week
AS well as character charm - an increasingly rare feature in Scarborough - this beautifully maintained home has development potential.
There are options aplenty with the property. Make the existing four-bedroom dwelling home, or capitalise on the opportunity to develop the 1053sq m block, which is just 250 metres from the beach.
It is a potential four-unit development site, with generous 21-metre front and rear boundaries and in a cul-de-sac location.
The original owners have lovingly maintained the home, which stylishly blurs the line between old and new thanks to sympathetic renovations.
Features include polished floorboards, high ceilings, timber doorframes and a feature fireplace.
Entry is into the open formal lounge and dining rooms, with ornate cornices and ceiling roses, picture rails and glass doors to the front verandah.
The adjoining kitchen has been updated to balance form and function, and has a walk-in pantry and stainless steel appliances such as a dishwasher and gas hot plates.
Timber-framed glass display cabinets remain as a reminder of its original style.
Another set of glass doors links these rooms to a second living area - an ideal family or games room - with exposed brick walls and stairs to the undercroft double garage.
There are four bedrooms, all with built-in robes.
The big main bedroom has its own bathroom, while the others are convenient to a shared bathroom.
A built-in workstation is a feature of the study.
Those who enjoy entertaining will love the back yard, featuring established, manicured gardens around a pool with a feature rock wall.
Other features of the home include split system airconditioning, automatic reticulation to the gardens and a salt chlorinator and Kreepy Krawly for the pool.
