14 Wentworth Street, Moana SA 5169
Established coastal footprint | 790sqm flat block with bushfire overlay | 4-bedroom layout with outdoor entertaining focus | 1986 build with scope to add value
The property sits on a rare level 790sqm block in a coastal pocket where such land is increasingly scarce, giving a buyer immediate positional advantage. The existing 4-bedroom layout with an outdoor pitched pergola, built-in pizza oven, and open fireplace creates a liveable family proposition from day one while preserving significant rear yard space for future expansion, pool, or subdivision potential subject to council appetite. This property best suits a buyer who wants a solid family hold in Moanaโs catchment for Moana Primary and Seaford Secondary College, with the confidence that land value will underpin long-term performance.
The bushfire overlay is a material risk that will increase insurance premiums and limit certain renovations without compliance upgrades, costing the buyer both time and money if a rebuild or major extension is contemplated. Bedroom and floor size discrepancies across records (3-4 bedrooms, 116-171sqm) suggest either an unapproved addition or outdated data, which a buyer must verify through a building inspection before exchange. The single bathroom in a 4-bedroom home is a functional constraint for families and will limit resale appeal in the segment above $900,000. The opportunity lies in the land: hold for land-banking or pursue a DA for a second dwelling if council zoning permits, and treat the existing house as a low-maintenance rental or entry-level family home until then.
