The Home & Interior
Step inside to a single-level layout designed for easy, functional living. The house is oriented to maximize natural light, leaving the spaces exceptionally well-lit, sun-drenched, and naturally warm.
Living & Comfort: A separate, cozy lounge relies on a modern heat pump paired with thorough ceiling and underfloor insulation to ensure absolute year-round comfort. A home ventilation system keeps the airflow crisp and dry. An original chimney stands ready for your creative touch, offering the choice to restore it as a character feature or remove it entirely to reclaim interior floor space.
Kitchen & Dining: The separate kitchen integrates a dedicated dining space, offering excellent storage and serving as the practical hub of the home.
Bedrooms & Bathroom: Two double bedrooms provide quiet retreats. They are serviced by a tidy bathroom complete with a shower, toilet, and basin.
Utility & Storage: A highly functional, separate laundry room leads directly out to the backyard and clothesline. Storage is remarkably generous, featuring a massive crawl space underneath the house to keep your gear completely tucked away.
The Section, Views & Parking
Outside, the property boasts incredible utility and space. A clean, tarmacked driveway guides you up to a separate single garage, while the spacious layout accommodates an additional four off-street parking spaces with ease.
The elevated rear portion of the property frames distinct views of the ocean peeking behind the trees. A selective trim or removal of these trees could dramatically open up a panoramic blue vista, creating an ideal backdrop for a future outdoor deck or entertainment area. The sizable, fully fenced lawn provides a private and secure sanctuary for children and pets to play safely.
A Family-Friendly Location
Waverley is highly sought after for its neighborhood community and excellent school zones.
Education: Zoned for the highly regarded Grant's Braes School, which is a safe, flat 12-minute walk away.
Recreation: Perfectly positioned just a 1-minute stroll from the Belford Street Playground, making afternoon park runs effortless.
Amenities: Enjoy the absolute convenience of a 14-minute walk to the local hub featuring a dairy, hairdresser, fish and chip shop, and cafe. When the big weekly shop rolls around, the supermarket is just a short 5-minute drive down the road.
