Introduction
Synonymous with weekend beach getaways and fun-filled holidays, this charming A-frame cottage presents a unique offering to the market. With oodles of character and only one neighbour, this is a rare opportunity to turn an original character home into the quintessential beachside abode.

Location
Nestled on the fringe of both Bellambi and East Corrimal, this remarkable cottage enjoys the luxury of being close to a range of amenities including shops, cafes and services. Located within walking distance to both Corrimal High School and Bellambi Public School, the home is situated in the heart of a very family friendly pocket. Train and bus options are close by and the highway is super accessible taking you into Wollongong in approximately 15 minutes. Close to plenty of parks, green spaces, bike trails, lagoon and beaches, this is an idyllic yet convenient haven for those who dream of beachy outdoor lifestyle.

Property
Constructed of double brick, this solid timber framed home has been built to last! Perched on a large and level block, the home has fabulous street appeal with timber window shutters, manicured gardens and a curved driveway that leads you to the welcoming front porch.

Stepping inside you'll instantly feel the eclectic quirkiness that this home offers with its purple carpets, retro light fittings, original wallpaper and exposed brick and timber beams. Yes, there's some work that needs to be done, but the bones hold up a very functional floorplan sprawled across two levels.

On the lower level, you'll find generous living spaces including the kitchen, lounge room, dining room, internal laundry and powder room. On the upper level, 2 of the 3 large bedrooms feature built-in robes. There's also a large family bathroom and extra storage cupboards.

Enjoying a north facing aspect and only one neighbour, the home adjoins a park providing a peaceful outlook in a private setting. Positioned in the centre of this large 596m2 (approx.) block, there is ample room to extend either forward or aft of the home, and still have extra room for a pool.

Lifestyle
If you're looking for something a little bit different for your next reno project, look no further than this bright and cheery home, crying out for a little TLC! Offering loads of potential with great bones, a brilliant layout, on a decent block, this is an affordable first home or renovation project in a prime coastal location.
