With genuine family reasons for selling and a contract on their perfect next home, our vendors are as motivated as can be and have now priced The Gables at $3,175,000 to meet the market - and well below what they paid to buy it and update the interior, including a brand-new kitchen, a year ago.

Much admired, with generous proportions, this Californian Bungalow has space to spread out, space to study or work from home, and space to entertain indoors and out. Light and bright throughout, a self-contained space below - including bedroom, bathroom and living - is accessible directly from the street and could earn an income from Airbnb.

Elevated to enhance the super stunning street appeal in the heart of sought-after Stanley Bay, the property's gracious character has been retained, enhanced, and extended with a thoughtful renovation, so you can simply move in and enjoy living your best life.

A deceptively large and versatile multi-level layout guarantees peaceful separation for your family. On the main level are two bedrooms, one with a large sunny study area, and a family bathroom. Two living areas offer formal dining and a breakfast area connected via the kitchen with its brand-new, quality appliances. The upstairs master retreat also includes a study or nursery area plus an ensuite. A private balcony enjoys views over the treetops to the bay. Three heat pumps plus a gas fire in the lounge ensure year-round comfort. Fully fenced, level and mature gardens are irrigated for ease. A sheltered, spacious deck is ideal for alfresco living, warmed by an outdoor gas fire for evening ambience. The internal access garage has excellent workshop space.

The local primary school is just down the road, and buses to high schools pick up from around the corner. Getting into the village is an easy walk, or you can hop on a bus. And you can catch the ferry to the CBD for work or play in under fifteen minutes. A swim at Stanley Bay beach is just 200m away, next to the very best wharf jumping spot on the peninsula!
