Burning Opportunity on Burniston A brilliant opportunity at 202 Burniston Street, this well positioned property on a sizeable 690sqm duplex block is a great development prospect in the booming Scarborough precinct, surrounded by extensive ongoing development.With new high-density zoning laws bringing younger buyers to gentrify the area, over $100M spent on the new Scarborough Beach Master Plan, and the $450M Twin Towers just approved for commencement a couple of weeks ago, the future of Scarborough is looking lucrative, and this property is perfectly positioned. More bars, cafes and restaurants popping up, with great schools and lifestyle amenities like local sports and surf clubs, and plenty of grassy parks. Whether youre downsizing, a young couple, savvy investor or family seeking a friendly and convenient community, this area is for you.With a sealed rear laneway you have options. You could retain and renovate the existing character home, subdividing the rear to build a new, extra private second home behind. Another option would be to start fresh and build two new properties, renting one while you live in the other, or selling one to be mortgage free in your brand new home. Or if youre sentimental, create an estate with a regal character home as the bones to get started.While the development potential is phenomenal, the existing home is a comfortable place to reside too. Your front veranda has plenty of space to sit and watch the world go by, and warm timber floors remind you this is a home with history. The lounge at the front comfortably seats any visitors you may have, with a fireplace keeping everyone toasty in the winter months. Two spacious bedrooms with high ceilings are serviced by a low-maintenance bathroom ideal for washing off the sand following your afternoon swims at the beach down the road.Opportunities for significant development dont arise often and are becoming increasingly scarce in this booming area, so dont let this be the one that got away. Arrange a viewing with Brad and Kate Hardingham before someone else snaps up this one in a million chance.HOME IN BRIEF:- Two bedroom, one bathroom cottage on a 690sqm duplex block.- Sizeable block, zoned R30, subdividable, rear laneway for dual frontage.- Potential to retain existing home and sell off rear block.- Potential to renovate front and build at back, or build two new homes entirely.- Large front veranda and yard, ideal for relaxing.- Comfortable lounge room with fireplace.- Open plan kitchen with ample storage, overlooking dining.- Bedrooms with high ceilings, sharing large bathroom.- Large backyard with rear laneway access.- 5 minute bike ride to Scarborough Beach (under extensive redevelopment).- 5 minute drive to Westfield Innaloo Shopping Centre (under redevelopment).- 5 minute drive to Karrinyup Shopping Centre (under redevelopment).- 15 minute drive to the CBD.- 10 minute drive to the Mount Hawthorn caf and restaurant strip.- 300m to the local caf and fish n chip shop.- 800 to Doubleview IGA and chemist.- 650m Deanmore Square Park.- 350 to Scarborough Primary School.- 800m to Doubleview Primary School.- 5 minute drive to Churchlands Senior High School.- 6 minute bike ride to Hale School.- 8 minute bike ride to St Marys Anglican Girls School.
