Summary:
Nestled in the heart of Ocean Grove, this coastal retreat offers a blend of modern comfort and tranquil living. Its prime location promises easy access to local amenities, less than 5 minutes’ walk to the pristine shores of Ocean Grove beach and Terrace shopping strip. Whether you're looking to explore the Bellarine, indulge in delectable dining, or simply soak in the coastal charm, this retreat serves as the perfect starting point for all your beachside adventures.

The Space:
Experience contemporary seaside living in this modern four-bedroom home, perfectly blending convenience with a spacious design, set amid a sought-after lifestyle spot. Imagine being able to walk to one of the region’s most beautiful beaches in under 5 minutes; this is relaxed holiday living in a premier walk-to-everything location.

Designed for effortless beachside enjoyment, it's moments away from a bustling café and restaurant ambience, boutique shopping, serene riverside walking tracks, and one of the coast's top surf beaches. Every detail, from custom lead-light accents to the dramatic ceiling void, works in harmony to evoke a modern yet homely atmosphere. Natural elements such as bamboo flooring, stone bench tops, and an earthy colour scheme resonate beautifully with the coastal environment.

At its heart, the open plan living and dining area provides a magnificent setting for entertainment on the ground floor. Enhanced by Smart TVs* in both living rooms and a well-equipped kitchen boasting quality appliances, it's a host's dream. Easy indoor-outdoor flow to the decked alfresco area is perfect for outdoor dining, allowing you to immerse in the tranquil sounds of waves while being surrounded by native flora.

The upper level of the home features the master suite, furnished with a King-sized bed, offering sea views and access to a balcony with an outdoor setting to take advantage of watching the sunset over the waves. It's a sanctuary, complete with a luxurious ensuite showcasing a large in-situ shower and a spacious walk-in robe. A second living space or parent's retreat awaits, featuring a cosy gas log fireplace and a handy kitchenette. This level is also equipped with a split system for heating and cooling, ensuring optimal comfort, and chandeliers that evoke a Scandinavian feel.

The ground floor houses three additional bedrooms. Two with Queen beds, and one with Twin Single beds, made up with hotel quality sheets (BYO beach towels). These rooms are serviced by a deluxe family bathroom, the centerpiece being an elegant Lawson high-back clawfoot bathtub.
