8 Fifth Street

Elevate your expectations with one of the last and one of the best! Maybe the last under-capitalised opportunity at this premier beachside address, this approx 589sqm property is also one of the most elevated on the beach-side of the street. Rising above its neighbors in high gardens, there's the suggested possibility of bay-views... and the absolute certainty of high-impact presence! See the multi-million dollar new homes all around, appreciate the proliferation of luxury single-dwelling properties, and bring your vision to this blue-chip address. An obvious dream home location within steps of the sand, this rare offering may also be the last opportunity for dual-occupancy development at this invaluable Fifth St address (Subject to Council Approval). But don't be too quick to overlook the value in the charming three bedroom, two bathroom-area brick home already here. Sitting high on the site alongside a two-car garage with workshop, this dual-zone home offers a solid base for renovation and extension. Offering gracious living with a large formal lounge overseeing the street, this charming late-period/early mid-century home has flexible separate dining-room at its heart, and full-width family living dining facing the sunset-view backyard. However you see the future for this highly appealing site, this beautifully proportioned residence offers a comfortable home (or rental) base throughout the planning process. Appointed with a stone-finished stainless-steel appliance kitchen, a quality bathroom with separate WC and a second set of bathroom facilities along with the laundry, this welcoming home has all the necessities for a comfortable life including ducted heating, reverse-cycle air-conditioning, a warming open fireplace and built in robes for each bedroom. Best of all, this beach-side property has all the lifestyle benefits of this value-added address. Just 250m to the sand at Quiet Corner Beach, this elevated opportunity is a dozen doors to Donald Macdonald Reserve, and around the corner to the bus to the Brighton and Mentone private schools. A relaxed stroll to Black Rock's booming shopping village and a minute to Black Rock Primary School, there are Sandbelt Golf Courses in reach, and both Beaumaris and Mentone Girls Secondary Colleges in Zone.
