CLASSIC 1950s RETRO CHARMER WITH HOME BUSINESS/ STUDIO/ AIRBNB

Ideally located in a prominent East Warrnambool address close to schools, shopping centres, Hopkins River & foreshore, this fantastic property offers a lot more than first meets the eye. In addition to the delightfully renovated period home with all the trimmings, there is a fully self-contained studio apartment behind the main residence with established Airbnb history. Options aplenty for owner-occupiers and investors with home business and/ or dual occupancy/ income possibilities.

The immaculate 1950s brick home has been tastefully modernised while retaining all of its period charm. Features include: landscaped front garden, timber decking and sheltered front entry, formal entrance hall, 9' (2.7m) ceilings with decorative cornices, polished pine floorboards and new carpets in the bedrooms, tinted double glazed windows, 20 panel solar system, new fuse box, ceiling fans, gas ducted central heating, 2 split systems and the house has been repainted throughout.

The versatile floorplan comprises 2 large bedrooms with BIRs and ceiling fans, front lounge with wood heater, stylish kitchen with stone benchtops and AEG stainless steel appliances, meals area, spacious separate family room, study nook, formal dining room (which has been converted from the original bedroom 3), a lovely renovated bathroom and a swish new laundry. The sheltered pergola and sundeck provides a lovely spot to enjoy some downtime, bathed in all-day sun; there is a neat, safely-enclosed back yard and a lock up single garage with remote door. At the back of the garage is another room which can be used as a home office or home gym with additional separate shower and toilet.

What makes this a truly unique property is the very classy one bedroom studio apartment out the back, fully self-contained and perfect for Airbnb with a long established rental history. It could also be used as a salon or treatment/ consulting room, luxury guest room or detached unit for a dependent relative or young adult... there are so many possibilities. The apartment is very impressive, comprising open plan bedroom/lounge with kitchenette and meals area, deluxe ensuite bathroom, double glazed windows and quality fixtures & fittings. There is separate side access enabling independent use for residents and guests without coming thru the main residence with security cameras and sensor lighting down the driveway and around the back for added comfort and peace of mind.

Beautifully presented on a leafy 558m2 block, this is a charming home with all the creature comforts where you can relax, unwind and entertain in style, with all city amenities practically on your doorstep. Call us today to arrange your inspection time.
