This West Beach home offers the best of both worlds
Coastal home? Check. Colonial-style charmer? Check. This West Beach home is a double property dream come true.
In the past 45 years, three generations have lived in this grand home in West Beach, and at one point all comfortably together. There’s plenty of room for everyone, and more.
Commanding a 34m street frontage, a few minutes from shore, this double-brick Colonial-style home, accessed via a circular driveway, is a double property dream come true.
Sitting on an expansive 1373sqm allotment, the house at 9 Chetwynd St boasts five bedrooms spread across two levels.
The home’s ground level is an entertainer’s delight with a huge entertainer’s room that opens on to the outdoor area. It further leads on to the heated swimming pool (with a slide), spa, a Bali hut and well-maintained rear lawn.
Back indoors, there are multiple living spaces, including a lounge and dining area. Four bedrooms are well spread out and the master bedroom has a walk-in robe and renovated ensuite. Two additional bathrooms service the other bedrooms.
The upper wing, a modern addition in 2003, is a retreat in itself. An internal lift also provides easy access to this level. It has its own living area, a modern second kitchen with Caesar stone island bench, spacious bedroom complete with dressing room and ensuite, as well as both and front and rear balconies.
Selling agent Kate Smith of Harcourts Smith said among the highlights of the property was the proximity to the beach and the large allotment it sits on.
“A much-loved family home, it’s been with the same family since 1977. It had three generations living there at one point,” Ms Smith said.
“It’s an impressive property, a huge land holding that will appeal to families,” she said.
The property is set to go to auction on October 29 at 11.30am.
