BOULEVARD RETREAT HOUSE - no hills !! short walk to beach and shops

AS REVIEWED BY PAUL KALINA OF THE AGE TRAVELLER WEEKEND AWAY,
'Rise above the crowds to a quiet back street, only a short walk to beach and shops, this sleek modern house has a massive glass-encased living room with a large flowing space with plenty of fat, modular couches and chaises to spread out on..'

Nestled in the hillside in a private cul-de-sac, this stunning architecturally designed ultra-modern sanctuary, is only a short stroll to the beach, restaurants and shops with no hills.

Revel in the modern facilities over 2 levels this haven provides. 3 bedrooms, 2 bathrooms, car parking available, a fully-equipped european stainless steel kitchen, new ceramic cooktop/oven, polished concrete slab floor, floor to ceiling windows, WiFi, reverse cycle heating/cooling, laundry with washing machine. Master bedroom has an ensuite with toilet and double shower and downstairs bedrooms with toilet, shower and bath.
Dine inside or out on the sunny north facing balcony with gas Bbq, where you can enjoy snippets of the ocean, the native forest and wildlife.

A property exclusively for holiday makers requiring great accommodation with the latest modern design!

Okay
The host was easy to communicate with and the house was well equipped, however subpar cleanliness and upkeep were a big letdown for us. After months (or years) of rushed surface cleans the house really needs a good scrub - spider webs formed in the light fixtures, dirt accumulated in the corners and under beds/couches, sickly soap scum ring formed in the bath, and we even found someones used ear plugs. It’s not very accessible and family friendly, so I would definitely not be staying here again.

Great stay over the busy Xmas new year period
Our family of four (2kids aged 11 and 14) stayed here for 9 nights over the very busy xmas new year period. The place was fantastic - very clean, good air conditioning in all but one bedroom, very functional kitchen with all the supplies and crockery/cookware required. The rooms are quite spacious and the large open plan kitchen/living area was great. The location lacks a significant view but is in a nice quiet cul-de-sac and is a good escape from the more hectic ‘main drag’ of lorne. The house doesn’t have much of a beachy vibe and to us felt much more a town house not a beach house, but this is very clear by the look of the listing - so if you’re after a spacious house for pretty good value in walking distance to town and don’t mind missing out on a beach view etc then I’d very much recommend it.
