Perched majestically on an elevated 628m2 block only 300 metres from the beach, this impressive home is packed with character and provides multiple levels of relaxed family living with exceptional views of Port Phillip Bay through to the Melbourne skyline from the upper floors. Enter via the covered front verandah to experience an original timber-lined entertaining area complete with a built-in bar! All three bedrooms are also located on this level, including master with walk-through robe to ensuite, along with the main bathroom, separate toilet and laundry. A timber stairway ascends to the kitchen/dining area highlighted by exposed timber ceiling beams and featuring a peninsula bench, electric upright oven, dishwasher and plenty of cupboard space. Another short staircase leads to the spacious upper living area, also with exposed ceiling beams, boasting stunning panoramic views of the bay and opening onto a covered alfresco deck, ideal for evening dining or drinks while taking in the magnificent views. An under-home double carport with roller doors provides secure parking for cars or boats, complimented by a large under-home storage area, while the expansive rear yard provides a secure haven for children and pets. Located within easy walking distance to family-friendly swimming beaches and the St Leonards town centre, this is a coastal retreat that must be inspected to be fully appreciated.
