17 Stokes Street, Queenscliff, VIC, 3225, Australia

Exquisitely combining the picture-perfect charm of its circa 1910 heritage with considered contemporary enhancements, this immaculately presented period residence has been sympathetically restored for modern living, complete with first class alfresco entertaining and sunny rear yard.

Holding an enviable position in the heart of Queenscliff, just a two minute walk to historic Hesse Street shopping and dining, and a three minute stroll to the beach, this charming residence offers a perfect environment for young families, downsizers or holiday-makers to live, relax, play and entertain.

Beyond the timeless allure of its weatherboard façade with iron lacework, the double fronted home is warm and inviting, with light-filled interior spaces that delight at every turn.

A wide entrance hall introduces three robed bedrooms including a delightful master with original working fireplace, complemented by a deluxe ensuite and equally impressive main bathroom, both fitted with stone-top vanity, frameless walk-in shower, and brushed brass fixtures.

A generous open-plan living and dining domain is positioned to the rear and is served by a striking stone kitchen featuring high-quality appliances including double Westinghouse ovens, 900mm Electrolux cooktop and integrated Bosch dishwasher. Soft close, extendable cupboards offer plentiful storage space while a central island breakfast bench provides a relaxed setting for meals on the go.

Detailed with a meticulous eye, the bright and airy living space features a Stûv slow combustion wood fireplace as its impressive centrepiece, while custom banquette seating and servery window is a highlight of the adjoining dining space.

Sun-drenched outdoor zones make absolute best use of the low-maintenance 297sqm (approx.) allotment and east to west orientation, where a vast alfresco deck expands on the proportions of the home. An impressive setting for year round entertaining, it features a built-in fire place and steps down to the lawned rear yard and beyond to a freestanding pizza oven.

Complementing the traditional elegance of its origins, contemporary enhancements include hydronic heating, reverse cycle split system units to all bedrooms and living room, European laundry, Mahogany front and rear decks, plantation shutters, hot and cold outdoor shower, and a powered garden shed.

The home has also been re-wired, re-insulated, re-plumbed, re-painted and re-stumped, with the addition of a new galvanised tin roof, new flooring, and fresh paint-work – there really is nothing left to do but move in and enjoy.
