An elegant blend of grand character and sleek contemporary design combines to deliver outstanding family living in one of Geelong’s most sought after pockets. Set on a generous 677m2 (approx.) allotment, within walking distance of local shops and amenities, Newtown’s private school precinct, Pakington Street shopping strips, and only 5 minutes (approx.) from the CBD and Ring Road, this location offers an idyllic lifestyle with fantastic central convenience.
Set behind a picket fence and established trees, the classic bungalow façade features a grand verandah, double door entry and leadlight windows. On entry, a wide central hallway takes your eye through the length of the home, with polished timber floors, high ceilings and well preserved character features forming an impressive introduction within. Double doors lead to the master suite which includes an original mantel, walk in robes and stylish ensuite with modern finishes and quality fittings. Three additional bedrooms are all well-proportioned and serviced by a central bathroom featuring floor to ceiling tiles, walk-in frameless shower, and modern vanity with stone benchtop.
The first of two living areas resides in the original section of the home, featuring a beautiful fireplace as its centrepiece, offering an ambient space to relax or entertain away from the main traffic of the home. A seamless transition into the modern section of the home reveals a contemporary open plan with raked ceilings and north facing highlight windows creating a sense of light and space throughout. The elegant kitchen features a large island bench, waterfall stone benchtops, Smeg appliances, excellent storage provisions including walk-through pantry, and the optimum vantage point to oversee the dining, outdoor entertaining and out to the rear yard, perfect for everyday living and easy entertaining.
Large glass sliders create an effortless connection between the living and outdoor entertaining deck which overlooks the lush rear year and pool area, creating a resort style atmosphere designed to be enjoyed. The spacious lawn area offers ample space for the kids or pets to play in a peaceful and secure environment.
Additional features include solar panels, central ducted heating throughout, wine cellar, separate laundry with storage, additional storeroom, and a long driveway allowing for ample off street parking.
Conveniently situated a short walk from Geelong College campuses, St Josephs and Sacred Heart Colleges, surrounded by an array of amenities, and within walking distance of either Geelong West or River End Pakington Street, this location places you within easy reach of a multitude of cafes, restaurants and boutique shopping, offering the very best of lifestyles.
Beautifully presented, this is a wonderful opportunity to secure an established home that your family will enjoy for years to come.
