With stunning ocean views and a practical family layout, this beautifully presented home is a calming and spacious retreat from busy modern life.
A standout feature is a guest suite on the lower level with its own entrance that's perfect for visitors, grandparents or older children who like their own space. Another advantage is a choice of living spaces – all three of them – meaning there's lots of room for the whole family to spread out and plenty of room for entertaining.
The whole house has a feeling of space and ease and is incredibly well-presented with a neutral, contemporary colour palette. The new easy-care Coastal Blackbutt hybrid flooring creates a streamlined feel throughout. Climate control has also been well considered with a new ducted heating system, in addition to ceiling fans and the oversized wood heater, efficiently heating and cooling the whole house.
All of the home's communal living spaces are light and bright from plenty of windows along the north-easterly aspect. The formal sitting and dining rooms at the front of the house also have stunning elevated ocean views looking towards Bournda Headland.
The kitchen is the central point of a generous, open-plan family living space that includes a casual family meals area, a family sitting room and an extra seating nook next to the wood fire. The kitchen has a large island bench with waterfall benchtops, a step-in pantry, dishwasher, gas cooktop, electric wall oven and loads of storage space.
The north-east facing main bedroom suite has stunning ocean views, a his-and-hers walk-through-wardrobe and large ensuite with space for a double sink and separate shower and bath. Accessed off a separate hallway are bedrooms two, three and four (currently used as an office), which all have built-in wardrobes, as well as the laundry and main bathroom.
Opening off the central living space is a large wrap-around entertaining deck that makes the most of the north-eastern aspect and leads to a covered outdoor dining area in the backyard.
Set amongst hardy, low maintenance and tropical landscaping the dining area has enough space for the barbecue and everyone to gather around. Also in the fully fenced backyard is a separate firepit area, a good-sized garden/potting shed and a lush lawned area for the kids and pets to play.
On the home's lower level is the huge guest suite/fifth bedroom with ensuite bathroom, that can be accessed from within the house via the stairs, or from a separate external entrance. Also downstairs, is the double garage as well as an under-stairs storage cupboard and an enviable, neat and tidy workshop space. Storage will not be a problem at this property with a place for absolutely everything from garden tools, building materials, camping gear and bulky sporting equipment.
Peaceful and private, The Dress Circle is a quiet community with lots of families and owner-occupier neighbours and is an easy, less-than-15-minute walk to take the kids or dog for a walk down to Dolphin Cove Beach. Just a five-minute drive to Tura Beach shopping centre, this property is ideally located for exploring the surrounds of the pristine Sapphire Coast. Regional centre Bega is less than 20-minutes' drive to the north and the Sapphire Coast's jewel, Merimbula as well as the region's airport with daily flights to and from Melbourne and Sydney, is less than 10-minutes' drive away.
With a layout that functions incredibly well for family living, and a size and scale that gives everyone their own space, this home is a calm haven that's well-equipped to withstand the comings and goings of busy family life.
