Intrinsically shaped by its natural surroundings, this mid-century retreat captures the quiet beauty of Old Shoreham, where a tranquil pace, discreet street presence, and a connection to the coast shape a relaxed lifestyle just mins walk to the beach & surf.
Cherished by the same family since its inception, a warm timber facade settles effortlessly into the undisturbed landscape, peacefully shared with teeming birdlife, koalas, and echidnas. Fireside living and dining spaces are enriched by vertical timber panelling, imbuing the interiors with the warmth and authenticity of its original era. Generous glazing frames layered garden outlooks, where a half-century-old tapestry of native and ornamental flora evolves with the changing light and seasons.
The retro kitchen remains central to daily meals and entertaining, equipped with an electric cooktop and ample preparation space, flowing to a front deck that effortlessly bridges quiet solitude with the ease of shared company.
Unfolding across a four-bedroom, one-bathroom layout, the unique accommodation configuration is well-suited to multigenerational living or hosting guests. Two bedrooms sit beyond the main residence, joined by a flexible studio offering scope for remote work, creative pursuits, or additional accommodation, while the two more bedrooms open to decks, the primary with a spacious walk-in robe.
Positioned just 400 metres from local surf breaks and calm coastal trails, the property rests on just under an acre (approx), intimately connected to the region’s acclaimed cellar doors and landmark dining destinations, from the sculptural setting of Point Leo Estate to morning brunch at local favourite Merricks General Store, with hinterland farm gates rounding out the best of the Peninsula’s food and wine scene.
Built upon solid foundations, the home includes a drive-through carport, storage and woodsheds, a study, wood heater and split-system heating and cooling. A fitting canvas for future generations as a permanent or part-time retreat, this cherished escape invites new beginnings with potential to reimagine through a modern lens (STCA) while preserving the soul of its surroundings.
