Beresford can be considered by many as having no peer when it comes to coastal real estate close to the CBD in Geraldton. It is known as the premier beachside suburb on the north side of town, adjacent to a sensational strip of coastline that is simply stunning.
Locals know the intrinsic value of securing a property in this area. You are buying into a predominantly owner-occupied location, with many friendly neighbors and relaxed faces strolling the coastal walk across the road with their family, friends & happy dogs.
This is a location where many plan to build their forever home. Once people move to Beresford, they very rarely sell to move elsewhere, which is evidenced by the very low level of sales in this area year after year.
So not only are you buying a gorgeous beachside residence on a generous block, but you are also buying into a lifestyle that is simply special.
THINGS YOU SHOULD KNOW
The property was initially constructed in the 1940s as a quaint home by the sea. While there have been some changes throughout the years, the reality is that this property offers three defined options for the lucky incoming purchaser:
1. You can simply move in and enjoy the location and residence at an affordable entry-level price for this type of location. Accessing a beachfront location with an established home is not something that generally exists at the asking price. The home has been lived in for the past few decades by the current owner, so the option exists to continue in this fashion.
2. In this location, it's difficult to overcapitalise, given there have been sales on the street that exceed two million dollars previously. So; you can bring your imagination and convert the current residence - should you desire, into a glorious coastal residence ideal for short-stay accommodation or your long-stay beachside home.
3. The land value is so high in this area with so few properties available that if you did want to start from scratch and build an entirely new residence, the property is still very well positioned for this third option to exist. Even if it were a combination of the three, live in for a bit and then move to future upgrading/construction when you truly understand how you would like to live in/utilise the location in the future.
As you enter the property and turn left, you will walk into a generously sized lounge room that overlooks the ocean. This room flows through to the open kitchen area. There is plenty of natural light flowing through from the front windows with the jet-blue ocean striking you in the morning as you take in your morning coffee with breakfast.
To the right of the entry is the master suite, well-proportioned with the ability for access to a walk-in storage area/nursery.
In general, the house appears fairly solid for a house built in its time, sitting adjacent to the beach.
There are a couple of obvious items that the new owner will be able to put their finishing personal touches on. Your private inspection can easily outline a few of those items. These include some patchwork and some maintenance in some of the wet areas. The current owner has wanted to leave the house as is so that the incoming owner may have full flexibility to make changes and upgrades to their own personal preferences. That said, this is a sensational property, but it's always good to have no surprises at your viewing on something as small as a few items that may need some attention. 😊
There are a couple of further bedrooms outside the master suite and a secondary open living area outside the formal lounge that extends towards the rear alfresco area on the eastern wing of the residence.
From the outdoor alfresco area, you will look out towards the rear gardens that have been utilised by the current owner to have a great sized lawn area surrounded by a rock pool garden bed. This area could easily remain the same or be converted to have the addition of a pool or spa area depending on how you envisage spending your weekends relaxing outdoors.
In summary, 238 Chapman Road in Beresford is a unique opportunity to secure a property in one of Geraldton's most sought-after locations. The property offers a combination of a gorgeous beach side residence on a generous block, along with a lifestyle that is simply one-of-a-kind.
Whether you are looking for a permanent residence or a holiday home, or you are a savvy investor looking for an opportunity to add value, this property has the potential to tick all your boxes.
