Limitless Options - The Choice is Yours

Centrally located along the foreshore precinct lies an amazing opportunity for the astute investor, developer or home owner. Originally a guest house called 'Sea Spray', the building was purchased in 1962 to be used as a centre for seafarers to go that would give them a break from living on a ship and as a place to exchange currency. A brick, three bedroom, 2 bathroom manager's residence was built in the mid 1980's. In 2006 the Mission to Seafarers was relocated to the Port of Portland and the main building was used as holiday accommodation for large groups and the former manager's residence as a permanent rental.
The main building is a charming blend of old and new, with the original bluestone slab still in place, high ceilings, large sunlit windows and ducted heating
Consisting of an enormous dining area and fully equipped, updated kitchen which lies alongside an enclosed north facing verandah. The verandah is large enough to be used as a games room, and is accessed from double doors of the library / study which is situated in the middle of the residence. The living room is currently being used as a bedroom but could easily be turned into a formal lounge complete with open fire place and large windows overlooking the foreshore area.
Also comprising of an L-shaped ante-room with built in desk is perfect as an office, store room or play area, large storage room with shelves and access to a small undercover area, two generously proportioned bedrooms and two large bathrooms at either end of the building, both with showers, toilets and vanities, this property offers choices galore. A large hedge gives the sunroom privacy from the street and there is a security gate in the front yard to keep pets or children safe.
At the rear of the block sits the double storey manager's residence comprising of an upstairs living room, combined kitchen and dining area, all with partial sea views, 2 bedrooms and 2 bathrooms. Downstairs you have the laundry with toilet and shower, a second living area or teenagers retreat with external access, under stairs storage and a double garage.
With a prime CBD location, it is ideal for so many uses and with a little imagination - the removal of the hedge or the addition of a second storey to the main building (STCA), this opportunity is not to be missed!
