7a RIDGE STREET, MEREWETHER
With the sands of Merewether at your doorstep, this home simply could not be better placed for buyers seeking a beachy retreat brimming with character.
The three-bedroom property, located at 7a Ridge Street, has been a holiday destination for hundreds, previously used as an Air B&B.
And, it’s obvious why, with its bright white façade and decorative eaves, the home boasts beautiful retro vibes once you step inside.

Walking past the pretty front porch and stained-glass door, one witnesses the spacious single level layout, which boasts a generous open-plan and charming timber kitchen.
The timeless design features gas cooking appliances, wooden cabinetry and a beautiful breakfast island, perfect for enjoying everything from a quiet morning coffee to a illustrious dinner party.
The kitchen extends seamlessly to a private, covered alfresco dining area and a generous wrap around courtyard.

At the back of the home, the master is impressively-sized, equipped with an ensuite and grouped around two more robed bedrooms.
Both the ensuite and main bathroom are tidy, with the main featuring a spa bath, shower and separate WC.

The home’s laundry is equipped with ample built-in storage and yard access.
One can live stress-free in the summer, as the property comes with ducted air-conditioning, keeping it comfortable while assisted by the coastal breezes.
It also features a handy lock-up single car garage, as well as two extra spaces along the side of the home, adding to the practical appeal.
“It would be an ideal home for someone looking for a single level home,” said Dalton Partners agent David Phelan.
“It’s in excellent condition.
“You could move in and live in it as is, or alternatively one can do a full renovation and turn it into a quiet spectacular property in a perfect location.”
However, the main drawcard for this lovely home is it’s picture perfect location, where you can tuck your board under your arm and run down to the surf, get a few laps in before breakfast, or walk to nearby pubs and eateries to catchup with friends.

While the home shares a block with a stunning two-storey dwelling, Mr Phelan said one can achieve true luxury by purchasing both.
“Being on a Torrens title means that whoever buys the property isn’t restricted by any strata title rules,” he said.
“They can do whatever improvements they want to the property.”
Listed for $2,400,000 to $2,600,000 by itself, it’s perfect for someone wanting to downsize or as a dream holiday house.
