Overview

A Rare 1-Acre Lifestyle Property

Privately positioned on approximately 4,006m² (1 acre) of beautifully established grounds, this much-loved property offers plenty of space, privacy and a relaxed country feel, while being conveniently located close to Cowes. Featuring four bedrooms, two bathrooms and three separate living areas, this spacious home offers plenty of room for the whole family to enjoy. As you make your way up the circular driveway, the peaceful setting immediately becomes apparent. Surrounded by mature gum trees and overlooking the neighbouring Bluegum Reserve, the home enjoys a lovely sense of space and seclusion. Inside, the home is generous in size and well suited to family living. There are four good-sized bedrooms, with the main bedroom featuring its own ensuite and walk-in robe. The fourth bedroom is particularly versatile and could easily double as a home office or study. The extra large country-style kitchen is the real heart of the home, complete with large walk in pantry, an abundance of storage, electric oven and cooktop with plenty of room to cook, entertain and gather with family and friends. Polished Australian hardwood floors add plenty of warmth and character, while the slow-combustion wood heater makes the living area especially inviting in the cooler months. There is no shortage of living space, with a main living area, separate formal lounge and an additional family room providing plenty of options for everyone to spread out. Heating and cooling are well catered for with split systems throughout, while outside the huge covered deck is an ideal spot for entertaining, relaxing or simply taking in the peaceful surroundings. There is plenty of room here for large family gatherings and weekend get-togethers. The gardens have been thoughtfully established and will appeal to anyone who enjoys growing their own produce, with a fully enclosed vegetable garden and a separate enclosed area with established fruit trees. The property also offers an impressive amount of shedding and storage. Along with the attached double garage, there is a substantial four-bay machinery shed with lock-up workshop, a separate woodshed, potting shed/hot house, additional garden sheds and multiple rainwater tanks. Rear yard access via double gates, providing excellent functionality and flexibility for families, tradies and lifestyle buyers alike. Adding to the home's appeal is a substantial 22-panel solar system, helping to enhance energy efficiency and potentially reduce household electricity costs while providing an excellent sustainable addition to the property. Properties offering this amount of land, privacy, established gardens and infrastructure are becoming increasingly hard to find. Offered for the first time, this is a wonderful opportunity to secure a peaceful lifestyle property in a tightly held location, while still being close to all that Cowes has to offer. A property with genuine character, plenty of room to enjoy and a setting that is becoming increasingly rare. Backing onto the Blue Gum Reserve, the Cowes foreshore beach is just a short walk away, as is the Cowes Golf Club, Phillip Island Bowls Club, RSL, plus boutique restaurants, cafes, shops and all the amenities you could possibly need. Whether you're searching for a permanent family home, holiday retreat or investment opportunity, this impressive property delivers the space, convenience and lifestyle that buyers are seeking in today's market. A large home on just over an acre with rare rear access opportunities – this is Phillip Island living at its best.
