1/60 Barwon Boulevard, Highton

Subscribe to regular market updates. This beautifully renovated home enjoys one of the best views in Geelong. Located on an elevated block, it sits high above the Barwon River and captures views across the river and surrounding bushland to the city skyline. You can enjoy this magical view from almost any room in the house – from all three bedrooms, the spacious living and dining area and the front balcony which stretches across the width of the home. This home would suit active downsizers or a couple with teenagers who enjoy the outdoor life. In addition to providing easy access to the walking and cycling tracks along the river, it’s only a walk or short drive to the Highton Village shops, cafes and medical facilities. On the ground floor there are two bedrooms both with built-in robes and large windows taking in the view. They are separated by a swish bathroom which has a shower, bath and vanity unit. A blonde-wood staircase takes visitors upstairs to the expansive, open-plan living, dining and kitchen area – and that breathtaking view. It’s a beautiful area. New double-glazed, floor to ceiling windows surround the space and sliding glass doors open out to the undercover balcony. While it’s very easy to imagine relaxing here, it would also be a lovely place to entertain. The elegant kitchen is a statement in matte black cupboards, white granite benches and pendant lights. It is well equipped with a dishwasher, wall oven, gas hot plates and plenty of cupboards. A hallway off the living area leads to a large laundry fitted with lots of cupboards and outside access; and the main bedroom, which is something special. It’s a private retreat, located away from the living area, with large glass doors that slide open to the balcony overlooking the river. It’s completed by a spacious ensuite and a walk-in-robe. Other notable features of this low maintenance property include: an under-house storage area that has been set up as a wine cellar, a single garage with internal access, ducted heating, air-conditioning and a landscaped garden with a watering system and sensor lighting. It is only a 15-minute drive into the Geelong CBD and a short distance to the Ring Road to Melbourne.
