Unique Opportunity of Picturesque Property By The Sea

Set on 10 acres of pristine rural land with views of Port Phillip Bay, ‘Thar She Blows’ offers a taste of country life by the sea, located just moments from Portarlington Beach. From its humble beginnings as gorse-ridden pasture, this stunning property features a custom-built, two-storey home with reclaimed materials and an upside-down layout promising maximum enjoyment of the views across the manicured cottage-style gardens and to the sea beyond.
Key Features:
Living: Upside-down layout with the farmhouse-style kitchen with walk-in pantry and main living area upstairs, featuring century-old, reclaimed Blackbutt timber flooring sourced from the Port Adelaide Woolshed, and a second formal lounge downstairs.
Outdoor Spaces: Upstairs, multiple sets of French doors open to the timber wraparound balcony, and downstairs they open to a paved wraparound terrace, both overlooking the established cottage-style gardens surrounding the home. A peaceful firepit area is nestled in amongst the hedgerows and rose gardens. A netted veggie garden features four large, raised planter beds, and the chook run takes care of any scraps.
Bedrooms: Four generous bedrooms, including a spacious upstairs master suite featuring the same 100-year-old Blackbutt flooring, with a large walk-in robe and ensuite. Three additional bedrooms are downstairs, each with built-in robes and large windows.
Bathrooms: Ensuite bathroom to the main bedroom is in a farmhouse-style with a clawfoot bath, dual shower and ornate timber vanity. The main bathroom downstairs is generously proportioned with a glass-framed shower, timber vanity and toilet.
Study: Upstairs, a smaller south-facing room features built-in robes and French doors leading to the wraparound balcony.
Heating and Cooling: Two split system air conditioning units, one downstairs and one upstairs, are sufficient to heat and cool the entire house, with supplementary Nobo heating panels in three of the bedrooms.
Considered Extras: Well-equipped laundry with ample storage and outdoor access. Reclaimed materials used in the build, such as century-old Blackbutt timber flooring sourced from the Port Adelaide Woolshed, and 100-year-old red bricks salvaged from the demolition of the old Scotch College Music Hall.
Parking: Stunning tree-lined, circular driveway leads to a large three-car garage with side door and path to the house. Ample parking for additional cars along the drive.
