3/9 Bay Street

It's only around 350 metres between the front door and the sand at Mordialloc Beach where the shoreline stretches for kilometres in both directions. The luxury townhouse itself is double-storey, with a private lift between floors, three separate outdoor zones, and a footprint generous enough for a growing household today and flexible enough for the long-term. The lower level opens with a living room at the front, sliding doors to a north-facing deck, garden and an outdoor shower for rinsing sandy feet on the way in. Living flows through to dining, which steps out to a side deck. The kitchen is open-plan and finished with stone benchtops, a 900mm induction cooktop, integrated dishwasher, under- bench oven and breakfast bar. At the rear, a bedroom with built-in robes links through sliding doors to its own deck and lawn. The bathroom and Euro laundry sit directly alongside, giving this part of the interior an almost ensuite arrangement, ideal for guests, an older child or extended family. Upstairs, the main bedroom has a walk-in robe, ensuite and ceiling fan. A second bedroom with built-in robes is served by another bathroom, where a deep bath sits beside a separate shower. Between the two, a third room is adaptable as a sitting room or home office. A skylight above the staircase brings daylight down through both levels. Refrigerated heating and cooling runs across four zones, NBN is connected, solar provision is in place, and there is a double garage. This is one of Parkdale's quietest and most coveted coastal pockets. The Main Street strip and Como Parade West deliver a calibre of cafés, wine bars and restaurants more often associated with the inner city than bayside. Mordialloc Plaza handles weekly errands and Peter Scullin Reserve takes care of playtime with the kids. Mordialloc Station has the city covered in a comfortable commute, and the home sits inside the Mordialloc Beach Primary and Parkdale Secondary College zones, with private Mentone Grammar a short drive away. A contemporary low-maintenance home that works for the school run, the dog walk and dinner parties, and keeps working through every age and stage of family life. We donate a portion of our fee from every property transaction to the Woodards Foundation to support people experiencing homelessness, family violence and social isolation.
