Tucked away in a private, leafy setting in Ocean Grove, this expansive two-storey residence unfolds as a secluded resort, where generous proportions, natural light and a series of beautifully connected indoor and outdoor spaces create an effortless sense of escape.
At its heart is an outdoor sanctuary designed for long summer days and relaxed entertaining. A striking 10m swimming pool anchors the setting, bordered by sun-soaked terraces and a dedicated pool house complete with bar, kitchenette and television. Solar and heat-pump heating, salt chlorination and in-floor cleaning ensure the pool is as practical as it is inviting.
Beyond, a thatched pavilion introduces a distinctly tropical character, overlooking an expansive timber deck and landscaped surrounds. A private outdoor spa, framed by glass and lush banana palms, offers a tranquil place to unwind, while a shaded pergola and low-maintenance lawn complete the resort atmosphere. Two 1,200L water tanks with a pump support garden watering, adding another practical dimension to the landscaped setting.
Inside, rich Kempas timber floors, generous glazing and an open, flowing layout establish an immediate connection to the landscape. The 13mm German Perfect Timber flooring can be sanded and recoated, offering enduring quality and longevity. A dramatic stone feature wall with a recessed gas log fireplace lends texture and warmth to the downstairs living room, complemented by a custom entertainment wall and an inviting arrangement of spaces for gathering or retreating.
The kitchen forms a natural centrepiece for everyday living and entertaining, with an expansive island accommodating four, a gas cooktop, electric oven, black glass splashback and generous walk-in pantry. An under-bench bar fridge adds further convenience, while adjoining dining and family areas extend the sense of openness, with effortless access to the outdoor entertaining spaces.
Privately positioned upstairs, the main suite offers a peaceful retreat above the everyday. Corner windows capture leafy outlooks, while an adjoining sitting room opens to a secluded balcony, where slender cable balustrading preserves the connection to the treetops. A walk-in robe and generous ensuite with spa bath, double vanity and oversized shower complete this beautifully considered space. With provisions for a future kitchenette, including hot and cold water connections and drainage, along with split-system air conditioning, the upper-level retreat presents the potential for self-contained living, ideal for extended family, guests or multigenerational living.
Three additional bedrooms, a dedicated study and versatile secondary living areas provide flexibility for family life, work and relaxation, with spaces that can evolve as needs change.
The bathrooms are finished with glazed ceramic wall tiles and durable porcelain floor tiles, reflecting the home's attention to quality and practicality.
Behind the relaxed coastal character, a comprehensive suite of inclusions provides year-round comfort, including gas ducted heating, evaporative cooling, instantaneous gas hot water, a 6.8kW solar system, ducted vacuum with kitchen VacPan, an alarm system, partial C-Bus lighting and high-speed NBN fibre-to-the-premises connectivity.
Storage has been thoughtfully considered throughout, with an under-stair cellar or storage area, a large lock-up shed behind the laundry and a substantial three-car garage with additional roof storage accessed by a pull-down ladder. An extra private parking space at the front provides valuable flexibility for a boat, caravan or additional vehicle.
Positioned within easy reach of Surfside Primary School, Bellarine Secondary College, local shopping and sporting facilities, the address also places Ocean Grove's beaches, the Barwon River and Kingston Park Recreation Reserve just a short drive away.
A home of remarkable privacy and scale, where the rhythms of coastal living meet the atmosphere of a secluded resort.
