If you have ever dreamed about a property that feels like home before you even get there, here it is.
The distinctive SHIPWRIGHTS HOUSE has Federation arches gracing the wide front verandah encompassed by trees offering the privacy you desire.
Combining state-of-the-art living with the charm of a bygone era, this house has high ceilings and the interior woodwork includes cedar doors, bowed ship timber arches, feature windows and skylights, polished timber floors with 12 inch cedar skirting boards.
The kitchen features stainless steel bench tops and is certainly the centre of activity.
The house comprises of two separate ‘wings’.
The two ‘wings’ are joined by a shared living hub (perfect for a B&B) containing a contemporary stainless steel kitchen with a deep cafe sink and Bosch appliances, a roomy diner, a breakfast or sitting nook, a concealed laundry.
To the rear, the wide-opening bi-fold doors and windows opening to the back verandah and outdoor entertaining let the light and air in while you and your friends and family relax.
The first wing has a formal sitting room (presently also used as a writer’s study) leading to a main bedroom with large built in wardrobe, en-suite with glass shower and separate dressing room. The perfect private getaway for parents or grandparents.
The second ‘wing’ has another spacious sitting room/library leading to two further bedrooms, one with French doors opening to the wide front verandah. The third bedroom opens onto the long back verandah.
A second bathroom, with spa, completes this ‘wing’ – the perfect private space for family and guests.
Lock-up-and-leave security includes monitored burglar alarm, trigger lights, CrimSafe doors front and back, and window locks for extra peace of mind.
The double garage featured at the front of the house has an automatic door and large storage in pitched roof and would convert to extra accommodation, a studio or a great workshop.
Sit and relax on the verandahs surrounded by established gardens with shady trees and native shrubs.
It is only a short walk to Swimming Creek Beach but far enough to ensure a blissfully quiet private retreat.
