An unheralded opportunity for astute buyers searching to harness the best of prestigious Herne Bay. This two-bedroom heritage home on a premium corner site is a truly rare find, a deceased estate ready for its transformation.
On a 220m2 parcel of land on exclusive Sarsfield Street, the elegant residence is flooded with natural light thanks to its superbly elevated position.
Upon entry, discover a wide entranceway leading into open plan living and dining, with views across to the harbour and an abundance of beautifully maintained heritage elements. Immaculate polished wood floors flow throughout, and the spacious kitchen is well-appointed yet ready for its transformation.
Make your way through French doors at the end of the hall and straight out to a very private courtyard, which will be the dream for those who love to entertain. There is also direct access to an oversized garage, with entry via Hamilton Road and plenty of space to move - although chances are you'll be spending more time on foot given the close proximity to Jervois Road's fabulous boutique retail and world class restaurants and cafes. Also in place is a laundry, well-positioned at the rear of the home, along with the family bathroom and separate powder room, offering plenty of room to stamp your style.
The primary bedroom is at the north-facing front of the house, and along with the front verandah, comes bathed in all day sun. Council stamped plans show the second bedroom to the rear of the home underwent renovation in 1999, where some of the space has been used to create a character stairway up to well-proportioned mezzanine level, that the vendors have utilised as another bedroom. Please note that whilst Building Consent was issued at the time, Code Compliance Certificate was not issued, leaving scope for buyers to approach the property with both vision and due diligence.
Packed with potential, call your architect and start making plans, because this is a very rare opportunity to secure your own slice of the city's most premium suburb.
