There’s no longer a need to dream of a relaxed lifestyle near the sea with this sophisticated contemporary home located just a stone’s throw from Williamstown Beach in one of the area’s most beautiful and tightly held heritage precincts.
Entry is on the ground floor where open spaces and a versatile floor plan create a refreshing and alluring house in which to live.
A neutral palette throughout is complemented by cream ceramic floor tiles in the living areas, carpet in all the bedrooms and the warmth of timber accents in the staircase and plantation shutters.
The north-facing living hub on the ground floor includes the large family-meals area, bathed in natural light, which opens through french doors to a small front courtyard.
Wall-to-wall bifold doors open the hub to another large courtyard out the back, creating seamless indoor/outdoor living and entertainment.
The sleek kitchen has a wraparound stone bench atop plenty of storage in laminate cabinetry, and Smeg and Miele stainless-steel appliances including a dishwasher, wall oven, gas cooktop and rangehood.
There is a ground floor bedroom (right of entry) which is great for guests, or easily converted to a second living or theatre room – plenty of flexibility.
A separate laundry plus powder room rounds off the bottom level.
Three generously-sized bedrooms upstairs include the main with built-in wardrobes and en suite; the other two are served by the main bathroom.
Multiple outdoor living areas make this the perfect house for family entertainment or for enjoying those warm summer nights ahead.
Extra inclusions are ducted heating, refrigerated cooling, slab heating, a remote-controlled garage and an additional car space in the driveway.
The property’s premium corner block location is within a short stroll of Williamstown Beach, foreshore walkways, botanic gardens, train station, cafes and restaurants.
