18B Bowman Street, Aspendale

With nothing between its back gate and the sands of Aspendale Beach, this Lowe-built, flair-filled standout blends light, space, and low-maintenance splendour to deliver family-focused luxe and a lifestyle unlike anything else. Hidden away behind thriving plant life, a whisper-quiet interior with a private elevator is simply a sublime place to be. With concerted efforts made to gift scenery to every corner of the home, an inviting entrance is sure to leave a lasting impression, glancing through the flora of a central courtyard to take in vivid water outlooks. At plan’s rear, a tranquil sitting room with a wet bar is the ideal retreat following an afternoon on the swimming beach, with sliding glass revealing a decked alfresco, open-air lounge, and gate to the best backyard imaginable. Providing ample room for a family to grow into, three substantial, ground-level bedrooms are joined by excellent robe space, a stylish guest ensuite, and main bathroom serving bedrooms three and four, while above, a magnificent master features a walk-in robe, bathtub, and truly spectacular sights to wake to. Bringing all-day northern sun to a sweeping second storey, a central barbecue terrace merges effortlessly with a kitchen perfect for the passionate cook, comfortably catering for living, dining, and entwined balcony areas where a transcendent bay backdrop enriches everything from a morning coffee to evening drinks taking in sunsets over the water. With a six-figure revamp promising easy-care luxury long into the future, highlights include high-end reverse-cycle heating and cooling, recently installed carpets and engineered oak floors, an automatic sunshade and gas plumbing to the barbecue terrace, 900mm Smeg gas stove and Artusi oven, outdoor hot/cold shower, up and downstairs powder rooms, a full-size laundry, double garage, and driveway parking for two added cars. Indulging in the natural beauty, lifestyle vibrancy, and community spirit of an adored family setting, it’s only footsteps to yacht and lifesaving clubs, Peter Scullin Reserve, city-bound trains, locals’ favourite The Bridge Hotel, and Mordialloc’s array of restaurants, cafés, shops, and nightspots, while elite schooling sits just moments away.
