A generational rarity held by the same family for 45 years, this iconic 1957 restored weatherboard classic beautifully merges Mid-Century Modern character and Palm Springs glamour with contemporary luxury and comfort. Set on a prized 1156sqm (approx.) corner allotment, this turn-key, aspirational, 5-bedroom coastal home is literally a 2-3 minute walk (approx. 250m) from your doorstep to the serene sands of Tootgarook beach.
As a single-storey home, ensuring future-proof 'stair-free' accessibility, the property features so much heart and soul - a true entertainer's paradise. Light-filled and meticulously updated, the single-level layout features gorgeous period details and 2 flexible living zones. The main house offers 3 generous bedrooms and an inviting living area with a gas log fire.
Connected to the main home but with its own separate external access, the original rear bungalow has been transformed to provide 2 additional bedrooms or 1 bedroom plus study, a bathroom and a kitchenette - perfect for noisy kids/teens, guests, multi-generational living or even a premium Airbnb rental stream option. Enjoy zoned gas ducted heating with add-on refrigerated cooling throughout.
The front façade captures the striking street appeal framed by the soaring palm trees, while the large backyard is a beautiful private oasis boasting fruitful trees, lush gardens, an undercover entertaining area, a garage-converted games room, and free bore water for economical, easy garden maintenance.
Rare dual street access on a corner property so close to the beach - with a long, drive-through circular driveway - offers outstanding practicality for boats, caravans, trailers, and multiple private vehicles, with excellent potential for secure storage options (STCA).
Nestled in the heart of the Peninsula between Rosebud and Rye, Tootgarook is highly coveted for its flat, effortless walking terrain. With vibrant cafes and restaurants, 2 shopping districts to choose from, and all the essential amenities like Rosebud Hospital just minutes away, this is a unique opportunity to own a one-of-a-kind coastal home that will make you feel like you are always on holidays!
