There is no guesswork regarding the motivation here. The owners have their next chapter at a retirement village firmly in their sights, but to make it a reality, a Sold sticker is required. With a previous purchase price of $1.980m and a Reserve Set in the $1.8M's. 7 Ruku Street is positioned as one of the most compelling opportunities in the wider Bays market. This is a practical, high-spec home being offered by vendors who are 100% committed to a result.
What You’ll Love:
- A robust cedar and weatherboard build that prioritises quality and durability.
- Dual living zones provide genuine separation, ideal for families who need a media room, a music nook, or a dedicated art space.
- A kitchen and scullery combo that offers the luxury of two food preparation areas, making hosting effortless.
- The rear garden and wrap around deck are designed for the sun; the covered area with outdoor blinds creates a true second living room.
- Storage has been well thought out, from the walk in wardrobes to the oversized internal access garage and off street parking.
Best Bits From the Vendor:
"The flow of this house has made living here so easy for us. Having the kitchen and scullery was a real luxury for Shirley, she finally had all the prep space she ever wanted for entertaining. We’ve spent so many mornings in the back garden with a cuppa; it’s a space we are certainly going to miss. The house just accommodated everything we do; Derek had plenty of room for his baby grand piano, and the media room upstairs was perfect for Shirley’s art and playing with the grandkids. We’ve loved being able to stroll down to the village and the beach, but we need this sold now to move into the village and get on with our next step."
Lifestyle & Location:
Ruku Street offers the best of Long Bay without the through traffic. You are minutes from the Village, meaning the supermarket, cafes, and restaurants are an easy walk away. The Regional Park and beach provide a world class backyard for weekend walks or a quick swim. For families, being in zone for Long Bay Primary and College ensures a quality education within walking distance.
The Opportunity:
The owners aren't testing the market; they are ready to go. Because their move into the retirement village depends on this sale, they are looking for a clean, decisive result. If you’ve been waiting for a quality home with highly motivated sellers, this is it.
