Overview

Nestled in the tightly held coastal enclave of St Leonards, this property presents a compelling proposition for those with a vision for the future. The expansive 1,690 square meter parcel offers remarkable development potential (subject to council approval), making it an attractive prospect for developers, investors, or families desiring ample outdoor space to accommodate growth.

The existing home exudes warmth, blending character with practicality. Inside, polished timber floors create an inviting ambiance across two spacious living areas, providing versatile options for relaxing or entertaining. The open-plan kitchen, dining, and living spaces act as the home's heart, complemented by sliding doors that reveal a semi-enclosed, undercover alfresco area. Equipped with weather protection blinds and a solid-fuel heater, this zone affords comfortable year-round use, ideal for social gatherings or tranquil reflection.

The residence includes two generously sized bedrooms with built-in robes, serviced by a modern centrally located bathroom and a separate toilet. Convenience extends to a single carport, while the large rear yard is a standout feature, offering vehicle storage capabilities and the potential to explore multi-unit development opportunities that have seen success elsewhere in the street.

Mature trees enhance the property’s sense of privacy and tranquility, crafting a serene garden backdrop perfect for outdoor activities or peaceful summer barbecues. Located just moments from the bay and the amenities of St Leonards township, the site benefits from easy access to schools, shops, and transport, ensuring everyday convenience.
