Light and bright with high ceilings, a spacious renovated kitchen, lounge with fireplace, modern bathroom with spa bath and secluded patio for outdoor entertaining it is the ideal all-rounder. With its proximity to the village centre, golf course, primary school and beaches, this characterful, romantic residence is a perfect permanent residence, holiday home or holiday rental/investment.
Its location in 'old' Barwon Heads is very central. The cafes and boutiques of the village are a few minutes walk away and the Barwon Heads Golf Club and Surf-Coast beaches are just down the road. It's also very near the recreational facilities of the 54 acre village park and only 350m to the primary school. Whether you are considering living here, holidaying or investing this home will always have a great location in this gorgeous seaside village.
A spacious entrance hall introduces you to the high quality, polished timber floorboards that run throughout the home. Also noticeable are the tall ceilings with their simply styled cornices and the art-deco leadlight windows with their geometrical shapes and straight lines. These leadlights feature on the fully glazed front door and also on elegant, twin sliding pocket doors that lead into the lounge.
The lounge is light filled (its solid timber-framed windows face north) and contains a slow combustion wood fire which has been tastefully set into the original fire surround. A split-system air-conditioner cools the room in summer. The room opens to the sizable kitchen and casual meals area. This fully renovated area has a stylish modern kitchen with stainless steel stove/rangehood, oven, twin sink and dishwasher.
The remainder of the floorplan can accommodate three bedrooms or two and a large study (or formal dining room). All three rooms contain built-in robes and windows with garden views. One contains French doors that open to the paved entertaining area.
The crazy paving in the rear garden is a delightful addition to the residence and very fitting in appearance. It's a peaceful space among plenty of greenery, shrubs and small trees. The remainder of the well-kept and established garden serves to enhance privacy and improve the overall living environment.
There is also a detached multi-use structure in one corner of the garden. It is made of the same decorative concrete blocks of the main residence but it has been cleverly adapted to function as a lock-up garage, laundry and second bathroom.
Overall, this is a delightful home with great 'bones' that has been well preserved and updated for modern living. It has a cosy weekend getaway feel that can be yours everyday.
