This charming Californian bungalow offers all the conveniences of inner-city living, located in a highly desired pocket on the cusp of East Geelong.
Original period features showcase leadlight windows, high ceilings and timber floorboards combined with neutral tones, reflecting the house’s rich history. The open-plan living/dining/kitchen forms the heart of the home and is awash in natural light. A Yunca Monte wood heater in the living room provides a cozy space to relax and unwind. Overlooking the backyard, the stylish kitchen showcases stainless steel appliances (AEG oven, 5-burner cooktop & range hood, Westinghouse dishwasher), ample storage and bench space with a walk-in pantry and breakfast bar.
The main bedroom establishes a private retreat with a decorative fireplace, built-in robes and an ensuite. It also features plantation shutters and a ceiling fan. Two additional bedrooms with built-in robes share close access to the main bathroom, with a European laundry completing the layout. In addition to the wood fire, ceiling fans and a split system air conditioner ensure year-round comfort.
Double doors from the living zone lead to the generous undercover deck and alfresco area, ideally suited for entertaining with family and friends. A mature hedge surrounds the rear yard providing privacy for the outdoor spa, whilst the grassed area is perfect for the kids to play. Other highlights include a separate garden shed offering additional storage space, a 2020L rainwater tank, a secure yard for beloved pets and low-maintenance gardens.
When location is key, this property combines the very best of lifestyle and convenience. The home is zoned to South Geelong Primary School and Geelong High, whilst Newtown’s private school zone is just a short drive away. Boutique shops and cafes at East Geelong Shopping Village are at your fingertips, whilst the Geelong CBD, University Hospital, South Geelong train station and GMHBA stadium are within walking distance. Fill your weekends enjoying the Geelong Botanical Gardens and Eastern Beach Waterfront, or easily set off down the highway and explore the delights of the Bellarine Peninsula.
