38 McMahon Avenue, Anglesea, VIC

Four generations have loved this bright and inviting beach house. Retaining much of the original character, it has been updated over the years and is now a comfortable and stylish coastal home. Built by the current owner in 1975, it has welcomed family and friends for almost 50 years. Now it's another family's turn to take custody of this mid-century gem and create their own memories. At the front of the house is a large and sunny covered deck with a private treetop outlook. The north-facing living room has original hardwood floors in warm honey tones, and rustic timber beams overhead. Dado timber panelling adds to the charm of this inviting space. Large sliding glass doors open onto the deck, and enable the sunlight to pour in, creating a bright and cheerful living area. An efficient reverse cycle air conditioner provides year-round comfort. The kitchen offers loads of storage and bench space. It has a Blanco dishwasher and wonderful vintage St George stove, lovingly rescued and restored to take pride of place. There are three bedrooms of generous size, each with large windows for maximum enjoyment of the leafy surrounds. The family bathroom has a compact and versatile fibreglass bath shower unit. The house sits in the front third of the very large and low maintenance 1190sqm (app) block that slopes upward away from the house. The backyard is lightly wooded, and there is ample space at the rear to take advantage of the increased elevation and build a dream home with impressive views, or to just enjoy the abundant treed space, tranquillity and birdsong. The beloved vintage family caravan has been repurposed as a cosy kids' cave, providing additional beds, a games room or home office. It has power and a reverse cycle air conditioner, and a double and a single bed/daybed. Beneath the house, there is plenty of storage for all your beach toys such as windsurfers, wave riders and surfboards. At the front of the house, there is space to for a boat or caravan, as well as ample off-street parking. This house sits in close proximity to the famous Anglesea golf course. Walk or drive to the clubhouse for a round of golf, a meal or to take visitors to see the resident kangaroos. The township is an easy walk away, and the beaches, a short drive. This delightful house showcases the best that old and new Anglesea has to offer. It has charm, comfort and space, in a beautiful and convenient location. A home for all seasons, it is ready for its next owners.
