40 Port Drive, Mermaid Waters, Qld 4218

So much potential –with the opportunity to renovate, build up or or knockdown, with a second level to enjoy the city and hinterland views.  A unique waterfront property, situated in the heart of the most sought-after nook of Mermaid Waters on a north-facing water frontage with sandy beach. There is plenty of scope for a new owner to add their distinctive touch to this solidly constructed home which can be built up to take advantage of the North facing Surfers Paradise city skyline views.

A spacious single-storey family home on a rare, sprawling 1007m2 block, with two living areas, and the added advantage of separate double lock up as well as a single garage and two additional carports.  Loads of room for the workshop enthusiast. The property also enjoys added income with a separate granny flat or rental unit (currently rented $410 per week) above the double garage, which has views to the hinterland and water and is air conditioned. This is the largest block in the street; the house is very private from the street, with the house tucked around the corner from streets view, a hint of a battle axe block.  

This rare position is currently the very best find on water to appeal to boat owners who like easy seaway access, a 20-metre wide waterfrontage.   The property is fit for the outdoor enthusiasts while it boasts a North facing sandy beach, complete with launching ramp and winch, large pontoon connected to 2 large pylons with a good-sized walkway (being freshly painted).

One of the extra features is the sturdy construction brick and 9- and 10-foot ceilings throughout this sprawling 3 bedroom, plus office, 2-bathroom, 3 car garage, 2 carport home enjoying the backdrop of the water, Hinterland and Surfers Paradise Northern views. Offering room to move, the freshly renovated kitchen and dining flow to a covered alfresco terrace and sun deck, while a large study could be converted into a fourth bedroom.
