Some people dream of a house by the sea – and the lifestyle that comes with it – and this could be the perfect opportunity to make that dream a reality.
This refined contemporary residence delivers inviting, architecturally-interesting spaces that seamlessly merge indoor and outdoor living and entertainment.
The house is in a sought-after location on the Williamstown waterfront, with harbour and city views from the upper balcony.
The front door opens to a light-filled foyer at the base of a polished timber staircase with glass balustrade.
Polished floorboards start from here and flow down the hallway to two bedrooms with built-in wardrobes and split-system. Each bedroom has access to a shared courtyard with surrounding gardens – a serene spot for enjoying a favourite book, a cup of coffee or to steal a quiet moment alone.
The main bathroom services the rooms on the bottom level and has twin ceramic basins, stone-topped vanity unit and a large frameless glass shower.
The laundry, a small storage room and inside access to the remote-controlled double garage round off the ground floor.
Generous spaces upstairs are dedicated to living, dining and entertainment.
At the heart of the space is the ultra-modern kitchen with stone benches, stainless-steel appliances including 900mm wall oven, gas cooktop and rangehood, and integrated storage.
Polished floorboards flow throughout the entire top level, including the large family-dining area which is warmed by a stylish stainless-steel gas log fire on a raised platform.
On warmer evenings the area can be opened out through a large sliding door to an expansive balcony.
The large main bedroom is also on this level and has an en suite and built-in wardrobe – and includes a private balcony.
