1 Cassinia Street, Inverloch

There's a moment when you realise the next chapter deserves to be the best one. This craftsman built Inverloch residence was made for exactly that. From the moment you arrive, the bones speak for themselves. Solid hardwood floors run underfoot, high ceilings open the space above you, and 250 sqm of thoughtfully designed living unfolds across a generous 780 sqm allotment. The master bedroom is a genuine retreat, with a walk-in robe and ensuite, while two further bedrooms, a separate room that works equally well as a fourth bedroom or hobby space, and a dedicated office give everyone in the home their own corner. Three separate living zones, including a formal sitting room, a spacious dining area and a central living room, mean the grandchildren can take over one end while you quietly reclaim the other. And what a place to do it. Inverloch is one of Gippsland's most loved coastal towns, where the surf beach and the calm waters of Anderson Inlet sit just minutes apart. The main street has the cafes, the bakery, the independent shops and the familiar faces that make a town feel like home rather than a holiday. It's relaxed without being sleepy, connected without being crowded, and once people find it, they rarely want to leave. Step outside and the property keeps delivering. The covered deck is made for long afternoons, the covered spa sits privately to the side, and the BBQ area completes an outdoor setup built for easy entertaining. For the one who still has projects on the go, the workshop and garage is a serious bonus. Fully separate, lockable and genuinely usable, this is not a garden shed afterthought. There's also a tool shed, a double garage and a carport with side access for the boat or caravan. For those mornings when motivation strikes, the Broadbeach Health Club is a short stroll away, complete with indoor and outdoor pools and a fully equipped gymnasium. The option is there. So is the spa. Coast, comfort and craftsmanship. The canvas is ready.
