Spectacular views over Swan Bay

January 27, 2023 BY

In the heart of heritage Queenscliff, 69 Stokes Street is an outstanding property that occupies a prime elevated position overlooking the magnificent Swan Bay.

Queenscliff is the jewel in the Bellarine’s crown, steeped in history and radiating charm and character of a traditional coastal settlement.

From magnificent architecture and stunning coastal landscapes, Queenscliff has so much to offer so it’s no wonder so many people want to live, holiday and retire here.

Fletchers Bellarine are well and truly embedded in this community as a trusted local agency and have now brought another spectacular bayside home to market that truly reflects the borough’s traditional coastal character.

In the heart of heritage Queenscliff, 69 Stokes Street is an outstanding property that occupies a prime elevated position overlooking the magnificent Swan Bay.

The existing two-bedroom home is bright and spacious, though the 959sqm block also holds great potential to craft a future dream residence or as a unique development opportunity subject to council approval with an approved permit is in place for one development option.

The property is situated just metres from the bay, primary schools and has direct access to the highly popular walk or bike rail trail whilst Queenscliff’s vibrant main street with its cafes, shops, boutiques and restaurants is an easy stroll away.

Fletchers property consultant Wayne Wrigley said this certainly was an amazing opportunity to acquire a property with so much potential.

“With water frontage, huge views and being so convenient to all of the wonderful features Queenscliff has to offer, there is no wonder that this property is turning heads,” Mr Wrigley said.

“This site is well suited for development with 959sqm to work with, the corner position a positive providing a versatile template for future builds.

“Properties like this rarely come to market and this makes for a great opportunity for a purchaser to enter this prestigious market and sculpture their own dream home.”

Well suited as a permanent residence or holiday home in a much sought-after seaside village, the Stokes Street corner position offers an opportunity to watch the sun set over the bay.

The north-facing front entrance is bathed in light and provides the first glimpse of the views to Swan Bay and the rolling hills of the Bellarine Peninsula beyond.

This aspect provides an indication of the optimal northerly aspect this location commands in this quiet part of town.

With recently updated paintwork and carpet throughout, the home features two generous bedrooms with built in robes, formal lounge with reverse cycle aircon/heater and gas heater and a modern central bathroom.

The large kitchen offers plenty of storage and a Chef oven with gas cooktop. The adjacent laundry flows off a sunroom which is well suited as a second living space.

 

Outside, the established garden is large and relatively private and a single lockup garage sits at the bottom of a paved driveway whilst there is further storage available in a shed and under the house.

Geelong’s big city services are just a 30-minute drive, with Melbourne only 90 minutes’ drive away.

Whether it’s a beachside bolthole for occasional relaxed use or the beginning of a once-in-a-lifetime project, don’t miss the opportunity to secure a rare piece of old Queenscliff.

To be sold by Expressions of Interest closing February 21 at noon (unless sold beforehand).
