LISTING DESCRIPTION
as of May 2015

SOLD UNDER THE HAMMER BEACHFRONT HOMETo be sold by auction under instructions from the mortgagee exercising power of sale.Over 1/2 acre of level, 27 metres of beach frontage, north-facing, beachfront land with 180 degree views over the Coral Sea. The 2,307 sq. metre site is situated in a quiet street a few minutes walk to Bowens 9 hole, beachfront golf course and 5 minutes drive to the town centre.The property includes a modest 2 bedroom brick, solid slab cottage, with kitchen and bathroom. Out buildings include laundry/storage and double garage/workshop.Sheltered from the prevailing southerly winds, the home is in an idyllic position - it is secluded but handy to everything including walking paths, shops and golf.It is well secured against erosion by a quality, eco-friendly, state of-the-art sea wall and features its own private boat ramp for light use, directly onto the beach.For 'boaties', it is only 10 nautical miles from Bowen's secure marina to Gloucester Island and Gloucester passage and its resorts, and from there the numerous islands of the Whitsundays extend in a continuous chain.From Bowen you are less than an hours drive to Airlie Beach, a bit more to Shute Harbour, and about an hour to the Whitsunday Coast airport.Howard Street has the only privately owned land in Bowen that goes directly onto the beach without intervening public land.This is a rare opportunity to enjoy life by the sea. Call Kyli McCrae to inspect.
