Located close to the marina in the tightly held exclusive heritage circle of Bayswater Point, 'Balfron' is a charming, character-filled two-storey bungalow.
Built in the 20s and set amidst homes of a similar era, it is a striking residence that retains many period features while benefiting from the addition of a new garage and deck, re-levelling and re-piling, insulation, solar hot water, upgraded plumbing, and a partial bathroom renovation.
But make no mistake - there is more to be done!
After 20 years ownership, our vendors are off overseas, leaving an enviable opportunity for the new owner to purchase below the CV and work with the home's original features, - solid native timber floors (many still concealed under carpet); batten ceilings; native timber banister and fire surround; bay windows; and the time-honoured art of lead lighting - all revealed behind a classic, wide, and welcoming front verandah.
On the lower level is the formal living room. This room can be closed off to create an intimate environment or opened up to the formal dining room creating one large entertaining space. Extending from here is the family living, dining and kitchen, a generous north-facing deck, and garden bordered with mature plantings - perfect for children and pets to enjoy.
Also on the lower level is a bathroom and laundry.
Once upstairs, you'll find three double bedrooms, master with separate nursery/study, and the north facing double with commanding water views across Shoal Bay. A second toilet together with a partial bathroom renovation.
Blessed with good bones and expectation below CV, this is a rare finding, an opportunity to complete the masterpiece and inject your own vision!
