January 22, 2018 BY

IT’S NOT often that you can find a home in one of Victoria’s most popular seaside towns that can be described as a “forever home”.

Whether you’re looking for that perfect retirement option, sea-change lifestyle opportunity or the picture-perfect holiday home, 47 Carr Street in Barwon Heads fits the bill.

Charmingly presented in quintessential coastal character, this beautiful family home offers the essence of seaside living.

RT Edgar’s Andy Ingham said that he was excited to be able to offer for sale the wonderful Barwon Heads home that had been owned by the same family for the last 18 years.

“You can tell that the family have taken every care to ensure that this home offers the very best of living by the sea.

“The combination of the soft timber façade and beautifully landscaped gardens, with outdoor entertainment spaces, ensure many summer evenings of enjoyment.

“With a short walk to the river and the park, this superb home offers the best of village living in a quiet part of town.”

Ideally located in one of Barwon Heads’ most highly sought river locations, this much-loved family home will instantly appeal the moment you walk through the front gate.

Full of character and charm, the home’s handsome east-facing front has a verandah with climbing wisteria, and timber shutters on all the windows.

Entry reveals a large L-shaped lounge, with hydronic heating (fitted throughout), a split-system and a slow-combustion wood heater.

An integrated surround sound system extends from lounge to dining and alfresco area.

The user-friendly galley kitchen is well-equipped with a large electric oven and five-burner gas cooktop, dishwasher, and plenty of storage space.

The adjoining dining area is perfect for those dinner parties while through double doors you can retire to the large, gable roofed casual dining space perfect all year round.

The three light-filled bedrooms all take in private views of the manicured gardens, the master benefits from its own bathroom plus spacious built-in robes, while the remaining bedrooms, also include built-in robes and are serviced by a second bathroom and toilet.

Outside is just as impressive with beautiful, private gardens perfect for children and pets.

Incorporated into the double carport/garage area is a bungalow, rumpus room or teenagers’ retreat.

Entertain in style with the barbecue/garden area or the paved courtyard.

A gentle stroll will get you to parks, sporting facilities, the river plus the main streets shops for a coffee and lunch.
