THERE is not another one like it.

This is the kind of thing that property listings say, but here in Blackmans Bay, it is a 100 per cent true fact.

No.82 Ocean Esplanade is the only property listed for sale today in its tightly held beachside street.

Houses here rarely hit the market, with just two sold so far in 2024.

Not one was sold last year.

And between 2018 and 2022, only one property per year was sold in this seaside strip.

Listed for sale with Peterswald’s Craig Anderson and Jess Hansen, the pair said No.82 was the next level above “tightly held”.

“This home is not just located in a tightly held position by the beach, it is at the southern end of the Esplanade where only two other properties have sold in the past eight years,” Ms Hansen said.

“The unrivalled beachside location is bound to appeal to a wide range of purchasers.

“Its sun-drenched north-facing aspect will definitely be a drawcard for buyers.

“Another part of the appeal is the rare opportunity to realise the potential of a beachside block of this size — 1073sq m — situated at the end of the cul-de-sac.”

Built in 1963, this stunningly positioned triple-bedroom home is within reaching distance of the pristine sands of Blackmans Bay Beach.

This classic solid brick home is ready to provide its new custodians with a spectacular lifestyle opportunity.

And while it is comfortable and liveable “as is”, it could be renovated to create a breathtaking contemporary waterfront masterpiece.

Mr Anderson said any upgrades or development to a property in such a revered and coveted position would “certainly be a sound investment”.
