This classic two-story three-bedroom beach house is a wonderful retreat for those seeking a peaceful escape near the ocean. Located on the northern side of Skenes Creek, it offers easy access to the Great Ocean Road and Skenes Creek-Forrest Road, making it convenient for travel and exploration in the area.
One of the property's highlights is its picturesque location overlooking an 80-acre farm site, which is zoned rural conservation and cannot be built on. This ensures that the beautiful views and tranquility surrounding the property will remain undisturbed.
The house itself is set on an elevated 585 sqm block and offers stunning views in every direction. On the top level, you'll find a naturally lit and spacious open plan living area, combining the living room, dining room, and kitchen. The semi-cathedral ceiling with exposed timber in this space provides a sense of warmth and open space. The area also includes a new reverse cycle air conditioning unit and wood fire box that radiates the whole house.
Flowing off the living space is a large wraparound deck which provides the perfect spot to enjoy the rural, sea and coastal views all the way out to Bass Strait and up to Cape Patton. It is a great place to relax, entertain and cook a barbecue whilst listening to echoes of the ocean.
Further on the top level are two large bedrooms and a bathroom with a separate toilet on this level. The master bedroom has built in robes and excellent ocean views. The second bedroom has great views of the Otway hills.
Downstairs, there is a third bedroom with built in robes and full laundry facilities. The property offers ample parking space with three undercover carports, which is a valuable feature for homeowners and visitors alike. There is also a brand new 315 litre electric hot water system.
The property includes a tool shed and the garden is neat, tidy and easy to maintain. The backyard has a large lawn space which would make a great place for a game of backyard cricket or kick a football.
The Skenes Creek area is known for its popularity among holiday homeowners, permanent residents, and investors alike. Being within a 10-minute walk to the beach and just a 5-minute drive to Apollo Bay adds to its desirability.
With its great location, views, and amenities, it presents an enticing prospect for anyone looking to embrace the coastal lifestyle and enjoy the peaceful surroundings.
