MODERN BEACHSIDE LIVING
Set behind a long driveway surrounded by landscaped rockeries and gardens of succulents and natives sits this quality built, modern, four bedroom home. On a large allotment, looking across the reserve, with a walk through the dunes to the local surf beach; this home is well worth an inspection.
The residence begins with a double garage with internal access to the large studio. Attached to the main residence, through the double carport, the studio with bathroom provides opportunity for a large bedroom, office, games room or perfect for holiday letting.
Modern, polished concrete underfoot sets the home apart and immediately sets the tone for modern living with individual flair. An over-sized Caesar Stone Island bench, central to the open plan kitchen, dining and living zone makes for an entertainers kitchen of dreams. Boasting stainless steel appliances and quality fittings throughout, its clever design flows naturally out to the expansive deck, which is partially covered for all season use. Cooled and heated via a large split system, the area is comfortable all year round.
The second living area is also accessible through sliding doors to the spacious deck and has its own split system. Two bedrooms occupy this zone of the house, both with built in robes, grey tone carpet and modern beach blinds with block out. A separate toilet and powder room are within close proximity to living areas, also a large modern bathroom.
The laundry is generous in proportions and has ample storage and bench tops. It walks directly through to the well located clothes line and courtyard, complete with chicken coup.
The luxurious master bedroom includes a secluded home office area, large modern en suite and substantial walk through robe. It also has the luxury of carpet underfoot and block out blinds. The large windows allow great views across the deck to the rugged coastal dunes.
Outdoors, as you step off the deck, the yards backdrop is a seemingly endless view of coastal reserve, of which is an easy walk through to the beautiful local surf beach. Cleverly designed, the low maintenance garden has a manicured ruggedness, in keeping with the coastal surroundings. Large, mature succulents and native plants have been well tendered and add to the overall flair of the home.
Surf Beach is a hidden gem amongst some of the more well-known townships of Phillip Island. It is based on a magnificent beach and sits conveniently between San Remo and Cowes within close proximity to local schools and amenities. This family home offers a relaxed and comfortable lifestyle for those looking for a modern home set on a large block.
