Summary:
Presenting a very special opportunity to family holiday in an exceptional beachside home. Set in a prestigious and secluded setting, mere footsteps to the sand and surf, this is the ultimate seaside getaway. Recently renovated with modern appeal and comforts, this large home is characterised by extensive decks and timber-lined cove ceilings. The elevated position gives you a front row seat to exquisite views, spanning the ocean’s horizon towards a backdrop of the Barwon Heads Bluff and beyond.
The Space:
Commanding an elevated position in an exclusive oceanfront cul de sac, This Luxury Family property is a 5-bedroom residence offering captivating 180-degree views over Bass Strait. Perfectly positioned in one of Ocean Grove's most coveted no-through traffic locations, you will quickly embrace the tranquil coastal lifestyle.
The peacefulness here is unrivalled - world class views over the beach and visual connections with stunning natural surrounds provide an unforgettable lifestyle experience. Take daily walks to the Barwon Heads Bridge and back, surf out the front, or just enjoy a quiet stroll to The Dunes (450m) for a morning coffee or a meal. No matter what the season, there’s always something to watch - from the waves rolling in and the ships passing by, to the kite surfers and summertime lightning storms over the ocean. Views really don’t get much better.
Picture yourself holidaying with your family only paces away from the ocean’s shores and a short stroll to shopping, cafes, and restaurants. The large-scale layout serves as an incredible seaside holiday house for memorable trips down the coast. Nestled atop the sand dunes, the original ocean side property is set across three levels with expansive windows to capture the outlook. Five large bedrooms, three bathrooms, and multiple living and recreation areas are all generously proportioned to cater to up to two families.
Three spacious living areas, including the sublime sunroom, have all been designed to maximise the view so you can relax and watch the waves roll in. Central heating and reverse cycle air-conditioning is ideal in all-seasons, bringing families together in the living room for movie nights (Smart TV-Netflix connectivity), reading or board games.
Immerse yourself in a piece of local history. Whilst the house has been renovated, the east to north wing is an old Barwon Heads boathouse that was transported to this Ocean Grove site in 1936. The timber-lined cove ceiling and period features like stained glass skylights have been preserved, and many historical photos are displayed on the gallery walls.
Extensive outdoor areas include an east-facing deck with sunken hot tub and a north-facing deck - ideal for all-day sunshine. The south-facing deck is the ideal spot for carefree weekends spent entertaining and relaxing, whilst gazing at the ocean.
The contemporary kitchen will appeal to home cooks and entertainers, with a 4m stone island bench, dishwasher and Smeg 900mm oven among the sophisticated inclusions. The breakfast eatery leads out to the north deck or enjoy brunch in the conservatory room, while the dining room offers the best views in town whilst listening to the sound of the waves.
Set up to sleep 10 guests (maximum 6 adults ), all beds are beautifully appointed with hotel quality sheets and bath towels, making your stay as comfortable as possible. Please BYO beach towels.
Cleverly zoned for privacy and sanctuary, the 5-bedroom floor plan includes two top floor Queen bedrooms, both with new Langham hotel beds, panoramic outlooks of the Barwon Heads Bluff and a shared bathroom. Two bathrooms service the central level, including a family bathroom with clawfoot bath and direct access to the east deck/sunken spa.
