Old Torquay dreamer hits the market

IN WHAT has long been a tightly held family holiday home area, an exceptional opportunity has now presented itself, as a remarkably positioned property hits the market after 45 years of making beach holiday dreams come true.  With Old Torquay property in high demand, this fantastic original beach cottage will not disappoint with its impeccable presentation and coastal charm, which is expected to lure many people desiring that traditional holiday home in an unbeatable position.

Situated opposite Taylor Park, handy to the bowls club, a hop, step and jump to Fishermans beach, less than 500 meters to the Gilbert Street café strip and shopping centre, makes 16 Beach Road an enviable central “Old Torquay” location.  To be auctioned by McCartney Real Estate on April 28 unless sold prior, this property throws up many options, according to McCartney director John McMahon.

“This is as good as it gets. An unbeatable position close to everything Torquay has to offer,” Mr McMahon said.  “This would make a great holiday home that can be utilised short or longer term with multiple development possibilities down the track.  “Beach Road has recorded some magnificent sales of late and this will be no exception. The position is just perfect!”

Improvements comprise a comfortable three-bedroom residence, spacious lounge/formal dining room, very serviceable original kitchen/dining area with a mixture of hardwood and pine timber flooring and quality carpet and a recently painted and renovated bathroom with separate toilet.

There is also a large storage shed/workshop, private outdoor shower, single carport and magical, north-oriented back yard, which will make the perfect backdrop for family gatherings over the holiday season.  Add to this the potential to develop subject to council approval, this accommodating 613sqm allotment is in one of the most desired locations on the Surf Coast.

The golden rule in real estate is position, so whether you want a holiday home or wish to secure a property to develop a permanent residence, you shouldn’t go past an opportunity such as this.  The auction will take place Saturday April 28 at 2pm unless sold prior.   Don’t delay your enquiry.
