Agent note -the description of this property and its situation below, is written by the owner and is done this way in order to give you, the reader and potential purchaser, some overall context of this amazing property.
Some people will love the Waterfront Pictures and may get carried away with the Ambience & beauty of the River Shots.( I know I've owned this place for nearly 15 years.)
However, potential PURCHASERS should have some Building Skills or be well connected with capable contacts ; otherwise , I will not be inclined to explain the potential details, not only of what
I have done over the past 12 years.... BUT also ... The range of options that they could use for the final phase in the creation of the ...Backyard Waterfront Area !
I purchased Marina Crescent in 2010, from an absent & former local Real Estate Principle who had lived here himself for the previous 11 years. I was only able to buy this property after he thought he would never return to NSW. ( He rented it out for 2 years after leaving the State, in case he needed to return )
He also organised the substantial addition that was added to the rear of the Original 1980's House in 2001. ( living/dining/ kitchen / extra corner bathroom all in an open plan 11m x 5.5 m space; with 4m sliding glass doors opening to a 5m 5.5m covered Alfresco Area over looking the River.
This property has been known as " Riverside Holidays " a very popular Holiday Rental property ( up to 14 people ) between 2012 & 2017.
Easter 2017 was my last rental period. I was then 100% retired & I moved in fulltime to "Riverside" for the Fun of my LAST backyard landscaping & waterfront dock/ Trimaran Kayak ramp construction.
10 months into my landscaping activities I had a " Cardiac Event" whilst mixing concrete ; (I had the major issues that develop in most of us as we age & just before 68th birthday ....mine caught up with me !) So, i came inside to the big " Riverview Room " in order to slow down from the outside " grunt work" & pulled out the storage/ pantry / oven part of the kitchen that had always been unappealing from the first time I had seen it ...7 years earlier.! Then, I had an other 'health issue ' whilst inside re-modelling the kitchen
I stopped All building/ landscaping right away ! . I started looking into the facts around people like myself ...... overweight , lung damaged, diabetics with high blood pressure etc. NOW , 7 years later, after retreating comfortably into the Original house in the Street Front area , i am still learning & " re-building" ( only this time it's My previously broken metabolism that I am "Reconstructing ") The work at the back has been left too long for my 75 yrs self, to want to complete & risk punishing my body : it's time for younger energies to take this great spot towards their own vision. (or if they like , some version of my own ).
PS.
During the few weeks since listing, most who have inspected have not really been able to apppreciate the Significant living & Entertainment areas of the property ; i Now realise this is because of my "temporary opening closure " between the Original house & the New Extension from 2001. (I sealed this opening nearly 7 years ago when I started working on the Kitchen remodeling )
Well, I've taken it all away Now ! You can see from the new photos how it works together as an Integrated Space ( including the covered Alfresco Area ). I've also started working Outside again on the Riverside Decking & BBQ Area (in a measured way which , surprisingly, i have mostly enjoyed ?. )
Anyhow , the latest pictures show the main changes so far , to both inside & outside. So, I will keep doing the outside " maintenance catchup " & working on some of the uncompleted areas from 8 years ago... Until i get an acceptable offer ?..... BUT, 'other areas of my Life' are now calling on me : So, its time to let go of my 14+ year "Riverside Journey " to an acceptable offer soon.
