In a premiere position on the doorstep of the Edwards Point Wildlife Reserve, 8 Swan Parade is a superb residence that has been architecturally designed and meticulously crafted to create a bespoke home, where modern luxury is merged with a relaxed beachside lifestyle.

Surrounded by beautifully manicured gardens on approximately 919sqm, complete with solar heated swimming pool, the four-bedroom home comprises a spacious floorplan over two levels, showcasing high-spec finishes and an easy integration with the natural surrounds.

Presented to perfection and offering a list of features that will impress the most fastidious of buyers, this home represents an outstanding opportunity for blissful seaside living.

Bellarine Property’s Lee Martin said that it is indeed rare to see such an exquisite home nestled in nature and a short stroll to the ocean.

“With the Bellarine’s most pristine nature reserve at your doorstep, this is certainly one of St Leonards most sought-after locations,” Mr Martin said.

“The owner has told us that it is a joy to live in a home that delivers such exceptional quality in a truly idyllic location.

“They love waking up to the sounds of the local birdlife, and then being able to stroll to the beach in just a few minutes – there is no better way to start your day.

“With no through traffic, this home really does deliver a lifestyle of perfect peace and privacy.”

This bespoke beach house features a considered design by Studio 101 Architects and construction by Bolder Constructions.

Set amongst beautifully landscaped, low-maintenance gardens and neighbouring the Edwards Point Wildlife Reserve, the home integrates seamlessly with its naturalistic setting.

Characterised by its spotted gum and recycled brick façade, the home impresses from the outset.

Interiors echo the warm of the natural surroundings, highlighted by spotted gum flooring and hardwood windows and finishes.

Soaring ceilings and full height glazing capitalise on the home’s stunning northern orientation, flooding the home in glorious natural light.

A waterfall stone island anchors the streamlined kitchen, featuring a full suite of Bosch appliances, double undermount sink and a fully fitted walk-in pantry.

The home’s upper level focuses on a lavish parents retreat with walk in robe, ensuite and private balcony overlooking the nature reserve.
