Looking for something different? Love a project? Seeking an affordable first on the property ladder? Then come right in, sit right down and make yourself at home!

Built in 1983 by current owners, the original "bones" designed by architect Gavin Willis have barely been touched in all that time. So many unique and (dare I say it) quirky elements - interesting angles, concrete block, timber beams, mezzanine floors - where do I begin?

New owners will gain the benefit of $45,850 - to be credited to them on settlement (the balance of EQC settlement for cosmetic repairs not yet completed) - to help with redecoration.

But this is also a cherished family home, which has been full of laughter, fun and memories. You'll appreciate the generous living and ample sleeping accommodation, the duality of bathrooms and the practicality of drive on access to double internal access garaging.

Views across the city are jaw-dropping and the vast built-in windowseat is reminiscent of something you'd find in the Hollywood Hills. Hewn into the rockface, the home almost "floats" and this weightlessness is reflected in the high ceilings and cantilevered appearance. There are so many different nooks and crannies in the 785m2 gardens from which to relax and revel in your outlook, or simply enjoy the famed hillside microclimate.

Mt Pleasant Primary is a short walk away and Ferrymead village is moments away; you may feel like you're in a world of your own, but rest assured the city is virtually on your doorstep.

Our sellers' original plans to return from overseas and renovate themselves have been scuppered in favour of a decision to sell on and let new owners make their mark. There is so much scope here - roll up your sleeves, bring your colour swatches and get stuck in!
