A leisurely 550 metres downhill stroll to the golden sands of beloved Daveys Bay Beach, this exceedingly rare double seaside allotment with dual historic homes invites endless opportunity to reimagine into the coastal residence of your dreams in this blue-chip location.
Steeped in history, the land was part of James Davey's pre-emptive right. As one of the first landholders in Mount Eliza, he was given first option to buy a square mile of land considered on the best part of the coast, which was later subdivided by his executors after his death.
Set amid glorious gardens, the property is site to two abodes, including 'Prospect', a circa-1880s cottage. Renovated and extended in recent years, the surprisingly spacious 2 bedroom home retains the character of the era with timber floors and soaring ceilings enhanced by a contemporary kitchen with stainless-steel appliances and a brand new bathroom/laundry.
The main house, 'Clew Cottage', was constructed in circa-1930. Overflowing with character, the 4 bedroom residence features a spacious living room with high vaulted ceiling, open fireplace with marble surround, parquetry timber floors and sash windows overlooking a central alfresco terrace.
A charming and well-sized kitchen boasts marble benchtops, a wall oven and in-island St George gas and electric cooktops, while a second living area opens to the wraparound verandah, a contemporary bathroom with walk-in shower, additional bathroom with laundry, powder room, gas furnace and split-systems are among the inclusions.
Walking distance to Toorak College with the village just beyond, the property includes a weatherboard garage with workshop and a variety of sheds and water tanks beyond a horseshoe driveway and large carport, along with boundless potential to renovate or redevelop the site (STCA) to capture bay views from an upper level. Land size: 3645sqm (approx.).
