As you arrive, the house reveals a calm, considered street presence - soft landscaping and a refined façade that quietly promise the quality within. A welcoming porch and generous entry draw you through to long sightlines that lead straight to the north facing garden dotted with flourishing fruit trees, where the home's thoughtful architecture and solid construction become immediately apparent. Clean lines and careful detailing create a sense of cohesion, and the workmanship shows in durable finishes and well resolved joinery.
The kitchen and main living areas are deliberately oriented to the north, filling the heart of the home with steady natural light and creating a warm, practical living zone that opens directly to the alfresco and deck, for effortless indoor outdoor entertaining, with bonus peeks of Corio Bay. The open plan flows with an easy rhythm - meal preparation, conversation and relaxation happen together in a space that feels generous yet intimate, while a dedicated desk and sewing station within the living/dining area provide a convenient, integrated workspace for projects, study or creative pursuits.
Designed for flexibility, the floorplan works beautifully as a three bedroom family home yet adapts easily to include a fourth bedroom or a dedicated study to suit changing needs.
The main bedroom is a private, functional retreat with a walk through robe and an ensuite arranged for everyday convenience. Practical extras such as a carport, single garage, a detached studio/office deliver immediate, usable space for work, hobbies or a home business, adding genuine lifestyle value without compromising the home's cohesive design. Positioned in Manifold Heights, the home enjoys a prestigious, family friendly setting with tree lined streets and easy access to local amenities. Close proximity to quality schools, shops, Geelong's CBD, waterfront, railway stations, the Geelong Ring Road, and Bellarine Peninsula, makes daily life convenient and attractive to buyers seeking both community and connectivity. The suburb's calm character and strong local appeal add long term lifestyle value.
This original Californian Bungalow home balances architectural intent with liveable warmth: bright, adaptable and crafted to perform for family life, work and entertaining. It's an ideal choice for buyers who want considered design, quality build and the convenience of integrated work and hobby spaces. You will be delighted upon your inspection.
