Original Mid-Century Charm in Old Ocean Grove
Description
AVAILABLE FOR PRIVATE INSPECTION: Set on a generous 631sqm north-facing allotment in a quiet court location, this charming Barry Dunell-built home offers a rare opportunity to secure a slice of Old Ocean Grove and create something truly special. Built circa 1977, the home retains much of its original character, showcasing exposed timber beams, timber-clad accents and a timeless mid-century aesthetic that remains both welcoming and full of personality. Neat and comfortable as is, the residence comprises three bedrooms, one bathroom and a cosy L-shaped living and dining area that enjoys an abundance of natural light. Two new split-system heating and cooling units provide year-round comfort, while the home's practical layout offers the perfect foundation for future enhancements. Whether you're looking to move straight in, update over time or undertake a more substantial renovation, the potential here is undeniable. Outside, the flat block presents endless possibilities. The largely blank-canvas garden provides ample space to create your dream outdoor entertaining area, establish landscaped gardens or expand upon the existing footprint (STCA). A garden shed and generous side access offer excellent room for trailers, boats or additional storage. Positioned within the highly sought-after Ocean Grove Primary School precinct and just moments from shops, parks, sporting facilities and the beach, the location is every bit as appealing as the opportunity itself. Ideal for first-home buyers, renovators, investors or those seeking a development opportunity, with proposed plans for a potential subdivision available for review (STCA). This property offers flexibility, character and future potential in equal measure. Live in and enjoy today, renovate to add value tomorrow, rent out as a solid investment, or explore the possibilities this substantial block provides. A genuine original with mid-century charm, endless potential and a prized Old Ocean Grove address.
