Overview

Open the Door to Space, Light and Coastal Ease

*** Available After a Failed Contract *** Set in the heart of peaceful Encounter Bay, 42 Solway Crescent is a home designed for living well by the sea. It blends scale, warmth and flexibility, offering room to grow, entertain and unwind, all just moments from the coast. This new-build has never been lived in and offers an opportunity to decorate and landscape to your tastes. Open the Door To: • A substantial five-bedroom home on a generous 660m² allotment, with potential side access for caravan or boat storage • A quiet beachside setting in tightly held Encounter Bay, where the pace slows and the ocean is always close • A grand lower-level entry that immediately hints at the scale within, with natural light reflecting off burnished concrete floors and soaring ceilings • A wide, welcoming hallway leading through to the main kitchen and family meals and living zone • A striking island bench that anchors the kitchen and invites connection, perfect for the home-entertaining chef. Seamless indoor-outdoor flow to the alfresco area through two oversized triple-slide glass doors. A cleverly concealed walk-through Butler's Pantry, thoughtfully designed and leading directly to the laundry • Flexible lower-level living with a fifth bedroom, study or formal lounge, plus WC and powder room • An upper level dedicated to rest and retreat, led by a master suite with private balcony, ocean glimpse, expansive walk-in robe and a refined double-vanity en-suite • A generously sized second bedroom with built-in robe, plus a central kids' retreat and open study zone. Bedrooms three and four, both with built-in robes and direct access to the expansive rear balcony, and a family bathroom that mirrors the quality and style of the master en-suite • A lifestyle location just 500 metres from Whalers Restaurant, with beaches, boat ramp and coastal trails at The Bluff and Kings Beach • Easy access to Victor Harbor, Port Elliot and the wider South Coast, with Yilki Store and the Beachouse nearby for coffee, casual meals and live music Close the Door On: • Living with someone else's landscaping choices, with unfinished gardens offering a true blank canvas to shape your own outdoor vision • The constant fight for space, thanks to a well-positioned home that leaves ample room for storage, a shed or your favourite toys The owners have brought the home to a point that feels complete, but with a few finishing touches required, they have now chosen to pursue another opportunity and pass this one on. Approval to include a shed and swimming pool have been removed, but were in the original plans can be revisited for those wanting to take that next step.
