With astounding ocean and bay views and unparalled privacy and seclusion on almost 1.5 acres, this timeless and contemporary Stephen Akehurst-designed home is the ultimate Portsea retreat. Set high on a dune with a sweeping 360 degree panorama, an inground pool, five bedrooms, multiple living zones and a choice of alfresco entertaining areas, discover the perfect summer base for family and friends to share in this incredible oceanside lifestyle. Gaze out across the ocean from the rear balcony with the Otways and Cape Schanck in the distance, watch ships entering The Heads from the kitchen window and take in a northerly aspect looking out over the bay to the Bellarine Peninsula from the sunny front terrace. Just 300m from the surf and a long stretch of sandy beach, spacious interiors include a flowing living and dining area on the upper level with open fireplace, a cosy formal lounge, a downstairs living area with kitchenette opening to a sheltered deck as well as a partly enclosed alfresco room. Hardwood timber floors and white-washed timber-lined ceilings carry the relaxed coastal theme while the home also includes three bathrooms, two powder rooms, an internal lift, triple garage and plenty of extra off-street parking.
