Serene views of boats moored in Rutherford Inlet, a sandy beach and jetty steps from the door and a superb reimagining of the original grand and stately 1935-built home await at this prized two-third acre property on the shores of Western Port Bay.
A labour of love to completely renovate and restore the four-bedroom home in a magazine-worthy take on American colonial style, enjoy graceful entertaining on the covered patio with Canary Island date palms and mature trees framing the priceless and unforgettable vista.
Set on a rise appropriately named ‘The Bluff’, the park-like gardens and lush lawns surrounding the home paint a picture of what awaits within.
Coffered ceilings, timber floors, white trim and an intriguing multi-level design create warm and intimate spaces to enjoy this unique seaside lifestyle with an open plan meals, living and kitchen area, large picture window, cosy gas log fire and French doors out to the alfresco zone.
The kitchen is dressed in timeless white with pressed metal-patterned tiles, stone benchtops, double stainless steel ovens, a built-in coffee machine and butler’s pantry. Also on the lower level are two bedrooms including one with French doors to the gardens, a stylish family bathroom and laundry with loads of storage space.
Upstairs, a retreat lounge and raised study area beside the master bedroom makes the most of the views of the inlet and marshlands, an internationally recognised breeding area for migratory birds.
There is also a split-level fourth bedroom and a balcony to catch a cooling sea breeze, while children will love the elaborate cubby house.
Less than an hour from the city, let your cares float away on the tide and be seduced by the grace and charm of this superb family home, once part of a larger property that was among the first to be settled in area in the 1870s.
