Overview

Dress-Circle Views, Endless Potential

Commanding a dress circle vantage with dazzling views stretching from the Point Lonsdale lighthouse to the Barwon Heads Bluff, this 1970s classic pairs relaxed coastal character with exceptional scope to reimagine or rebuild into a landmark seaside residence (STCA) a rare opportunity in one of the region's most coveted settings. Occupying an auspicious 888sqm (approx.) allotment a number long associated with prosperity and good fortune the property offers on-title access to Orton Street, with a direct beach track just 200m beyond. The Terrace's cafés, eateries and boutiques are an easy 500m stroll, reinforcing the home's exceptional lifestyle positioning. Held in largely original condition, the home's gently pitched ceilings, exposed beams and timber and brick detailing capture the warmth of its era right down to an unapologetically retro all-pink bathroom, a genuine period feature that's sure to charm. Upstairs, an elevated living layout pulls the kitchen, meals area and living zone toward the sea, opening onto a full-width balcony for watching the weather shift over the ocean or sunsets paint the sky, while a private north-facing courtyard offers an alternative space to relax with family and friends. A glass-wrapped sunroom becomes a natural pause point for slow morning coffees, while downstairs, an oversized rumpus room with kitchenette expands the entertaining options ideal for long summer stays and effortless holiday overflow. Fall asleep to the sound of the ocean and wake to mesmerising views from the main bedroom, positioned on the upper level with a walk-in robe, ensuite and direct balcony access. Three further bedrooms with built-in robes are distributed across both floors, serviced by a bathroom on each level. Comfort is well catered for with split-system air conditioning, along with a double carport and generous off-street parking. Supporting multiple future pathways refinement of the current home, a brand-new contemporary coastal residence, or a multi-dwelling development (STCA) each is strengthened by the position, the elevation and the never-to-be-built-out views. Unleash your imagination, call your architect, and plan an exciting new future for this spectacular site.
