Tucked behind a private stone and timber fence along the prized Riverside Drive in Torquay, this captivating stringybark residence delivers warmth, character, and an enviable coastal lifestyle just a short stroll from Fisherman's Beach.
Beautifully north-facing and rich in rustic appeal, this four-bedroom A-frame home showcases soaring hardwood exposed beams, original Baltic pine floors, and an undeniable sense of soul. From the moment you step inside, the craftsmanship and charm are unmistakable.
The expansive L-shaped kitchen, dining and living zone forms the heart of the home — a welcoming space designed for gathering and relaxed everyday living. The kitchen offers abundant bench space, a striking Cypress breakfast bar, walk-in pantry, and quality Smeg cooktop and oven, all overlooking the dining and lounge area. A built-in bar adds personality and warmth, while large doors open seamlessly to a generous deck and leafy garden surrounds — the perfect setting for long breakfasts, sunset drinks, or entertaining friends.
The upper level is devoted to a private master retreat, complete with a spacious bedroom, stunning newly renovated ensuite featuring an oversized shower and stone vanity, huge walk-in robe, and an abundance of natural light. Continue up to the third-level study, where glimpses of the ocean and Point Danger create an inspiring work-from-home outlook.
On the entry level, three additional bedrooms with built-in robes are serviced by an oversized family bathroom, complete with a classic clawfoot bath that beautifully complements the home's rustic aesthetic.
Outdoors, the lifestyle offering is equally impressive. A sparkling solar-heated, salt-chlorinated in-ground pool anchors the backyard, accompanied by a firepit zone, outdoor shower, garden shed and expansive lawn area for children and pets to enjoy. The gardens are low-maintenance, allowing you to spend more time relaxing and less time working.
Additional features include hydronic heating, excellent storage throughout and ample driveway parking with space for a caravan, boat, or trailer. Positioned just moments from Taylor Park, the local Bowls Club, vibrant cafes, and restaurants, this is a rare opportunity to secure a character-filled coastal sanctuary in one of Torquay's most tightly held pockets.
This is more than a home — it's a lifestyle. Inspect today and experience it for yourself.
