Hidden away right in the centre of Metung township, this is a property many locals don't even realise exists. Set on land of 6,710m2, it offers remarkable privacy while placing you within easy walking distance of the village, waterfront hotel, yacht, bowls and tennis clubs, and the primary school.
The property comprises two highly individual dwellings and substantial shedding, creating a versatile holding that suits permanent living, guest and extended family accommodation or an income producing option.
The main two-storey Western Red Cedar residence is full of personality and light, with generous open-plan living and a number of standout features. A repurposed Bairnsdale Rowing Club boat has been transformed into a striking ceiling feature light, while a decorative mirror dinghy is suspended in the high void above the kitchen and living area, adding a true sense of character, with a nod to Metung's nautical identity. The interior has been thoughtfully updated, including new kitchen and bathrooms, polished timber floorboards and newly constructed decks on both levels.
On the ground floor, the kitchen includes electric cooking and an island bench, flowing to the meals area that opens to the deck. The spacious lounge is warmed by a combustion wood heater. The master bedroom features a new ensuite and direct access to the deck, while a new family bathroom includes a shower, bath and vanity, with a separate toilet and integrated laundry facilities for everyday convenience.
Upstairs are two generous mezzanine-style bedrooms, one with built-in robe, both opening onto the upper deck. An interconnecting passage leads to a separate study, robe or storage room, and reverse-cycle air conditioning cools and heats the home as required.
Between the two residences, a large sunny alfresco area creates an excellent entertaining zone, where family and friends can come together for celebrations or to relax in the sunshine.
The second dwelling is constructed from mud brick, renowned for its natural temperature regulation - cool through summer and comfortably warm in winter. It features slate flooring, open-plan living with a new kitchenette, two bedrooms with built-in robes, a beautiful new ensuite and a second WC. This dwelling is ideal for guests, extended family or as a potential Airbnb.
Completing the offering is a substantial new 11.5m x 7.5m shed providing secure parking for vehicles, a boat or caravan. From this private hideaway, you can enjoy a tranquil outlook while still having the rare convenience of walking to everything Metung has to offer, including village shops and cafés, the waterfront, and community facilities.
