1 Mc Donald Road, Queenscliff, VIC, 3225, Australia

Escape to your own private sanctuary, where idyllic coast-meets-country views and soaring gum trees create a captivating setting in which to live out your Bellarine dreams. Secluded down a private lane, this instantly appealing property with frontage to the Swan Bay wetlands superbly merges absolute tranquillity with a unique position just moments to the Point Lonsdale village.

Over 21 acres of lush greenery envelop the architect-designed home, which has been lovingly maintained and enjoyed by its previous owner for nearly 40 years.

Inside, the soothing ambience of the home’s natural surroundings continues as raked timber-lined ceilings, exposed feature brickwork and characterful slate flooring imbue a sense of rustic warmth, while wall-to-wall windows make the most of the northern aspect beyond.

A convenient single-level floor plan centres around a communal hub where family members can choose to unwind in one of two living areas, both enhanced by the natural charm of wood-burning fires and abundant sunshine. The options for relaxed living extend outdoors to an expansive alfresco deck, providing a superb setting to unwind, bask the soothing sounds of nature, and take in the full rural outlook.

Oozing individuality, a timber galley-style kitchen adds to the everyday functionality while accommodation offers up to four bedrooms, including a restful main bedroom with built-in robes and walk-through bathroom connecting to a large home office/4th bedroom with deck access.

Two further robed bedrooms are separately zoned along with a split family bathroom and well-appointed laundry. Split system heating and cooling enhances the everyday comfort.

Practical external infrastructure offers a double lock-up garage, woodshed, and a freestanding barn with loft level and vehicle access, offering fabulous potential to update and create a private retreat, teen hideaway, workshop, or excellent storage solution.

Seemingly a world away from it all yet so close to everyday amenities and a myriad of local attractions, this idyllic property delivers comfort, serenity, and liveability, with exciting potential to further enhance the panoramic water and landscape vistas (STCA).
