Glorious gardens but the tip of the iceberg

GLORIOUS gardens are the calling card for this expansive, flexible home at Blackmans Bay.

Throughout its colourful grounds green thumb gardeners will find everything from a Japanese maple to a classic lemon tree.

There are plum trees, a plethora of beautiful flowers and a gazebo to relax in — a real treat in spring and summer.

Split across two levels, the property offers a large family home upstairs and the bonus of a self-contained flat on the lower ground floor.

The flat could be used as a teenager’s retreat, a granny flat or perhaps — with permissions in place — it could generate a few extra dollars as an accommodation space.

So much space.

The flat has a single bedroom with a built-in wardrobe, a bathroom and laundry, and an open plan kitchen and living room.

It is positioned alongside a garage, workshop and a storage area.

Upstairs, the home’s commanding location is revealed. North facing and slightly elevated, the property takes in sparkling water views.

The home has been superbly renovated and now boasts quality features like its bay windows, sunken spa bath in the main bathroom, gas cooking and external awnings on the north-facing windows.

What’s for dinner?

The large, stylish, curved sundeck is the place to be when taking in a sunrise.

The main level features three bedrooms including a master with an ensuite. They are also positioned next to the family bathroom.

Located just 150 metres from the beach and a few hundred metres from Blackmans Bay’s beachside restaurants, the lifestyle on offer here is off the charts.

The Blackmans Bay shopping centre, Hill St Grocer, a baker, chemist, doctors surgery, dentist, bottle shop and take away food stores are about 1km from this home.
