35 Berner Street, Merewether, NSW 2291

Just 500m from the beach, this charming period bungalow is the kind of place that immediately feels like home, which is probably why it's been cherished by the same family for over 45 years. Thoughtful updates blend with original features like its classic façade, wrap-around bullnose verandah, and ornate plaster ceiling in the lounge.

Inside, you'll find three comfortable bedrooms, a Caesarstone kitchen with gas cooking, a sunny dining area, and a spacious sunroom that invites the outdoors in. But the real bonus is a separate studio retreat above the oversized single garage. Complete with its own kitchenette, and bathroom, it's the perfect spot for a home office, guest accommodation, or even an Airbnb, especially with Merewether's beachside buzz on the doorstep.

Set on a 464.4sqm block surrounded by lush, established gardens, the backyard offers shelter from the southerlies, while the wrap-around verandah lets you chase the northeast sun or cool off in the shade. Move right in and enjoy all its current comforts or explore the potential to add your own touches. With a wide 15.24m frontage, there's even the opportunity for a dual occupancy development (STCA).

The lifestyle in Merewether needs no introduction and this place places you in the thick of it all. Run to the end of the street and choose between Dixon Park Beach or Merewether for endless sun, surf, and sand. Wander over to the Beach Hotel, or Surfhouse for dinner or drinks with friends, or head to The Junction for some leisurely shopping and a bite to eat.
