1 Bligh Street

Portland VIC 3305

Large blocks of bluestone and scoria create a path leading past cottage garden beds to the front veranda, which makes the most of these stunning views.
An asphalt drive leads to the double garage, which has a panel-lift door at the front, vehicular access into the rear yard and is fully lined. The garage also has direct access into the house.
Inside, the home features Baltic floors, with soft cream carpet in the bedrooms, 3.5m high ceilings, ceiling roses, picture rails and stately marble and slate fireplaces in three of the front rooms.
The spacious master bedroom has a walk-through robe and modern ensuite with period styling. The other three bedrooms have north facing windows taking in the bay views, although one is currently used as a sitting room.
The well-designed family bathroom is located off the hallway and contains a large corner spa with shower over it, vanity unit and a toilet. It also has a large skylight.
The rear extension of the house blends seamlessly with the original part by maintaining the high ceilings and neutral colour palette.
The spacious formal dining area could also be used as a second lounge if required. It has bluestone feature walls, north facing windows and adjoins a small light-filled ante room, which can be accessed from the driveway and could be utilised as a sitting room, or study space.
The formal dining room also opens on to the open-plan kitchen and living room with French doors opening onto the very private paved outdoor entertaining area.
The kitchen has pine cabinetry teamed with green slate-look laminate bench tops and leads through to a spacious laundry, containing a separate toilet, lots of storage space, and access into the garage as well as the pretty, low-maintenance rear yard where you will also find a large Colorbond shed.
