16 Foots Place

A much-loved family home offered for the first time in over 50 years, this freestanding double-fronted residence is tucked away at the end of a boutique cul-de-sac just around the corner from Fowler Reserve on the cusp of South Coogee. Set on over 500sqm of level land with a 13m frontage, the home was custom built by the current owners in 1974 and stands as a testament to enduring quality with its robust double-brick and concrete construction. Wrapped in established gardens and bathed in northerly sunshine, the private backyard is designed for relaxed living with a 10m pool as centrepiece to family fun and an alfresco entertainer's terrace complete with a barbecue and wet bar. Inside, a warm and welcoming layout offers multiple living zones including a character-filled basement rumpus reminiscent of an English-style pub. Five bedrooms are positioned on the upper level, including an oversized master suite, while a lower level home office adds flexibility. Immaculately maintained with original Tasmanian Oak joinery and internal access to double garaging, this is a home of heart, history and lasting appeal, just a short walk to Mahon Pool and along the coast to the north end of the beach. - Wide cul-de-sac, no through-traffic - Solid build and flawless presentation - 5 upstairs bedrooms and a home office - 4 large beds with built-ins and a balcony - Huge master suite with a walk-in robe - Light-filled living, Jetmaster fireplace - Separate dining with pocket doors - Miele-appointed kitchen, pool outlook - Family room opens to the gardens - Lush level lawn and a sunny 10m pool - Entertainer's terrace with built-in bbq - Downstairs rumpus room with a bar - 3 bathrooms and guest powder room - Ducted air conditioning, attic storage - Internal access to double garaging - South Coogee Publlic School catchment
