Intensely private beyond rambling seaside gardens on well over a prized ½ acre (2290 sqm approx) in Mt Eliza's magnificent Golden Mile, a lifetime of happy memories is distilled into the very DNA of this highly original 3 bedroom beach house.

Rich in eclectic character, interest and intrigue, this is home to delight buyers with a true appreciation of art deco retro style or those ready to roll up their sleeves and fully capitalise on existing bay views with a modern makeover and potential second storey addition (STCA).

The home's timeless white weatherboard exterior gives way to a formal lounge and dining room anchored by original polished floorboards where French and sliding doors invite an easy flow to the crazy paved balcony overlooking the perfect spot for your dream horizon edged pool.

A near-perfect time capsule of your grandmother's kitchen is as funky as it is functional, while the adjacent butler's preparation pantry offers a useful workspace and loads of additional storage.

The spacious master bedroom opens directly to the balcony an includes a vintage dressing room and ensuite, while a wide gallery-style hallway offers more space to lounge en route to two more bedrooms, the larger with generous build in robes.

Within walking distance of the beach, boutiques and cosmopolitan café scene of Mt Eliza village, creature comforts have not been overlooked and extras include gas ducted heating, reverse-cycle aircondioning, slate-surround open fireplace, a drive-through carport and lock-up garage.
