If you've ever wanted to live in a small seaside town where the locals are lovely, this might just be your ticket.
Nature and uninterrupted views are just some of the highlights of this incredible property, currently operating as a four-star bed and breakfast.
With five bedrooms and five bathrooms and loads of space to relax and soak up the sun, it would be an epic place to call home. This unique offering presents buyers with plenty of options.
The home is ready-made for Airbnb (STCA), or a family might like to use it as a weekender or low maintenance place to escape the everyday during school holidays or just a grand place to call home.
But before you set foot in the door let's talk about the lifestyle that awaits in postcode 3223.
The real-estate adage "location, location, location" certainly rings true at this bayside address with a list of attractions as long as your arm.
Start the day with a stroll in the Point Richards Flora and Fauna Reserve - just across the road.
Few people can boast having parkland literally opposite their front door - not to mention a bowling club, recreation reserve or beachside playground also nearby.
Those seeking salt, sand and sun can head off in the opposite direction to the Point Richards boat ramp for a stroll along the beach or to launch the boat or visit the miniature railway attraction.
If you're feeling nautical, head down to the Portarlington Harbour and Pier to check out the boats, or sail the day away with Port Phillip Ferries. Heading to Melbourne? The ferry can have you there in 80 minutes approx.
New owners will also be within easy reach of local wineries, the Portarlington Golf Club, and Bellarine Rail Trail for walking or cycling. This two-storey Edwardian home will charm from the street.
Inside, high ceilings enhance the sense of space and period features have been retained, including polished Baltic pine floorboards, leadlight windows, ornate cornices, ceiling rosettes and exquisite slump glass.
The home has a country cottage feel with a contemporary twist upstairs.
There's scope to breathe new life into the homestead, depending on your lifestyle requirements.
The designer kitchen is set on the first floor and has granite bench tops, quality appliances and loads of cabinetry. Enjoy a meal in the open-plan dining and living room space with cosy wood fire or step through French doors to the large balcony in the rear section of the home and savour the view.
Here it's all about rural vistas and sweeping views across Port Phillip Bay, Corio Bay and the You Yangs.
After a long day of indulgence and adventure any of the five bedrooms would be the perfect place to retreat to.
Each is light-filled, spacious, oh so private, and have an ensuite (yep, there's one in each room).
Whoever snavels up the bedroom on the first floor is in for a treat as it's got a private balcony, while the four bedrooms downstairs each have a double spa. Also downstairs is a large lounge room that links to the outside entertainment area where you can salute the sun or watch nature do its thing.
Other features include solar panels and an alarm system.
The location is 30 minutes by car to the Geelong CBD and 90 minutes to Melbourne.
