Set on the beautiful Encounter Bay esplanade, 5/47–48 Franklin Parade is a generous, two-level seafront apartment capturing panoramic views from The Bluff right around to Granite Island. With the beach directly across the road, you can quite literally step outside and feel the sand between your toes, while enjoying the convenience of a short stroll to local favourites such as Yilki General Store for your morning coffee and paper, or the Beach House Café for some of the best pizzas in town - and a glass of wine or a cold beer.
This is the only apartment within the Strata Plan to offer three bedrooms and three bathrooms, adding a rare level of flexibility and comfort. The third bathroom is located on the ground floor and includes a shower, vanity and w.c., making it ideal for rinsing off after a day at the beach. Owners also enjoy exclusive access to the private tennis court and BBQ facilities, available only to residents within the Strata Plan.
From the ground level, stairs lead to the main living and dining area, where high raked ceilings enhance the sense of space and natural light. Comfort is assured year-round with reverse-cycle air conditioning and a slow combustion heater. Sliding doors open seamlessly onto the tiled front balcony, creating the perfect spot to enjoy breathtaking sea views and stunning sunrises. Large picture windows capture the magnificent sea and island views. The property has been renovated from top to bottom in recent years, with beautiful bathrooms and a magnificent kitchen, featuring stone benchtops, induction cooktop, dual sink, dishwasher, soft-close cabinetry and walk-in pantry.
Also on this level is the master bedroom, complete with a large built-in robe, ceiling fan and sea views towards Granite Island. The main bathroom features under floor heating, floor to ceiling tiles, stone topped vanity and features a walk in shower with frameless screen, and a separate w.c. The laundry comes with a Bosch washing machine and Bosch condenser dryer and has plenty of cupboard space, with direct access to a rear balcony overlooking the tennis court.
The upper level provides a second living area with ceiling fan and looks down over the open-plan living below. The mezzanine providing a second living space, or home office, comes with plantation shutters for added privacy. Bedroom two with rural views accommodates a king size bed, reverse cycle air conditioning and ceiling fan. Bedroom three is also well sized with a ceiling fan. Both include built-in robes, with bedroom three enjoying uninterrupted seafront views.
A third bathroom on this level offers underfloor heating, a frameless shower, a spa bath and a stone topped vanity with a separate w.c.
Parking is well catered for with two allocated spaces, including a lock-up garage with remote roller door access. The additional car space is adjacent to the entry door. Landscaped gardens and paved pathways enhance the overall presentation of the Strata Plan, with easy access to the private tennis court and BBQ area.
An exceptional seaside offering with spectacular sea and island views, generously proportioned in an unbeatable location. This is a very rare opportunity to secure a magnificently presented, low maintenance, set and forget waterfront property.
The property is available on a walk in walk out basis by negotiation.
