Last Listing description (May 2024)

This charming Federation-period homestead, complete with self-contained guest quarters, has undergone a remarkable transformation, uniting the timeless allure of the early 1900's with an array of modern architectural enhancements. As you explore this generously proportioned single-level design, you'll be enchanted by its soaring ceilings adorned with ornate details, the ethereal glow of stained-glass windows, the warmth of timber floors, and the delicate intricacies of interior timber lacework.

The home's open and expansive floorplan guides you through a series of inviting living spaces, culminating in the awe-inspiring third lounge at the rear. Here, a soaring cathedral ceiling and colossal picture windows frame the captivating gardens. Dual banks of bifold doors seamlessly connect the indoors with an alfresco deck, providing a vantage point to admire the picturesque ornamental dam.

Undoubtedly, the heart of this home is the gourmet kitchen, boasting luxurious stone benchtops, a Fisher & Paykel oven, and a dishwasher. Additionally, there's a sumptuous lounge graced by a French fireplace, a comfortable sitting room replete with built-in sofa seating, and an expansive dining area that caters to a multitude of moods and occasions.

The master suite evokes the lavishness of a high-end hotel, boasting bay windows dressed with plantation shutters and sliding barn doors that conceal a commodious walk-in robe. The ensuite is a true masterpiece, featuring a frameless-glass rain shower. Further down the hall, you'll discover a full second bathroom, adorned with a freestanding soaker tub, to serve the two junior bedrooms.

A north-facing alfresco courtyard presents an idyllic setting for a firepit and offers direct access to a detached studio/games room. The property also includes a chicken run, a double carport with a lock-up shed, and an expansive 12.5 x 7.5m machinery shed with additional garaging and a workshop, catering to a range of needs and desires.

A distinctive feature of this property is the separate studio apartment, perfect for hosting overnight guests or generating rental income through short-stay holiday rentals. This deluxe studio can comfortably sleep four and features its own lounge with two day beds, a two-way gas log fireplace, a modern bathroom, a private deck, and a well-appointed kitchen with a timber island and a Blanco stainless-steel oven with a gas cooktop. This space would be perfect for a work-from-home setup and is well-suited for various professions.

This exceptional property is situated on a subdividable (STCA) 1.75-acre (approx.) allotment. The expansive grounds are reminiscent of a park, with serene gardens and a picturesque dam. It's conveniently located within walking distance of iconic places like Merricks General Store, Stonier Wines, and the Merricks Pony Club and just a short drive from the Peninsula's beautiful beaches, Point Leo Estate, Balnarring Village Shopping Centre, and Balnarring Primary School.
