A large undercover rear deck with TV, pull-down blinds and space for a barbecue, dining and lounge suites is ideal for summer get-togethers with family and friends. The private rear yard has plenty of space for kids to play, a lemon tree loaded with fruit and a chook run/vegetable garden. A gated side driveway provides secure off-street parking with a garage, plus room to store a trailer or boat. Other highlights include a 6.6kW solar panel system, wood-burning heater and split-system unit in the lounge for year-round comfort, ceiling fans, large laundry, separate toilet, rear vestibule/utility room and garden storage sheds. Stroll to Geelong East Primary School, footy and netball at St Albans Reserve and The Gordon's East Geelong campus at the end of the street. The property is also close to public transport, local shops and supermarkets at Newcomb Central Shopping Centre and Bellarine Village and within easy reach of Geelong train station and the Ring Road for commuters. And when the weather warms up, you're minutes from the highway to the beaches of the Bellarine Peninsula.
