Sell the car and walk to everything!

A unique family home, filled with character is now on the market in the heart of Sandgate where you can walk to both the waterfront and Woolworths in less than 5 minutes.

The top section of the home is timber, built in 1920, and features decorative ceilings and railings. With green outlook and plenty of windows, the light and open lounge space welcomes visitors as do the large kitchen and walk-through dining area.

The downstairs is solid brick (from a 1980 raise and build-under) and provides the flexible, overflow space we all need. There are two large bedrooms upstairs, the main with built-in cupboards and extra storage under the bay window seat.

Upstairs also includes a large sleep-out which has many flexible uses: third bedroom, super large study, nursery or divide up to create an ensuite off the main bedroom. A powder room (toilet and sink) and a reading nook/entry also make up the upstairs.

Downstairs is the full bathroom and a huge bedroom or home office (not legal height under todays rules) as well as the laundry, lock-up garage and a retro-cool entertainers lounge with bar, fireplace and TV antenna.

Location is the big draw card here and truly is unbeatable. The home is outside the flood-zone of the Avenues but so close to the train, shops and waterfront you can even see the Sandgate Town Hall Clock Tower from the lounge upstairs! While the house has scope for updating it is very liveable and the position is simply perfect.
