Opportunity Knocks! Privacy Assured.
Situated at the end of a quiet no-through road, nestled in the edge of the area's temperate rainforest, you'll treasure the tranquil privacy of this home. Surrounded by native animals like wallabies, wombats, some echidnas and the solitary resident goanna as your companions, you'll feel privileged to be included in their world. This spacious family home requires a reasonable amount of work, but that would get it up to tip top condition and show off its living spaces at their best. There is a quality timber kitchen with plenty of hardwood benches and good cupboard and pantry space, an adjacent breakfast/ dining area, and next to this there's a big lounge/ rumpus room with open fireplace. The entry area from the double front doors is roomy and features the timber staircase that leads to the upstairs areas. Downstairs along the wide hallway is the main bathroom, with a large hardwood timber bench and cupboards that match the kitchen. Next to this is a separate toilet, and a large laundry area with a door leading onto the encircling veranda. At the end of the hall there is a good sized bedroom with built in robes, and next to that a generous bedroom with ensuite and a whole wall of built in robes, that could be a master bedroom, or a luxurious guest space. This room fills with light and has its own sliding door giving access to the veranda and the bush land views. Upstairs features an enormous combined dining/ living area complete with a second open fireplace, and a polished timber floor made from boards that originally came from HMAS Cerberus. The cathedral ceiling will make first time dinner guests catch their breath in admiration looking at its captivating angles and massive structural wooden beams that came from an old wool store in Geelong. The floor to ceiling windows frame views across the valley, and also the impressive structural bank featuring the huge granite boulders Gembrook is famous for. A third of the upstairs floor forms a unique master bedroom with smaller rooms tucked into its nooks and angles that could be converted to an ensuite and possibly a dressing room. One already functions as a walk in robe. The house is situated on a large flattened area, with a circular drive around the house, and a pony paddock, and veggie garden area and wood shed at one end. At the other end is a garage capable of housing at least 4 cars, and enough additional flat space next to that to build a large shed if required. Directly across the drive from the bricked path to the rear door of the house is a gazebo that's perfect for all your barbecue and outdoor entertainment needs. One of the interesting features visible here is the palm tree that used to be out the front of the Williamstown police station. There is a productive lemon tree conveniently next to the barbecue, as well as several old variety fruit trees on the property, including apples and pears. The rest of the land is untouched bushland.
