Immerse yourself in the Mornington Peninsula’s relaxed coastal lifestyle, a 10-minute stroll from the water's edge. Its open-plan interiors flow to an entertainers’ deck and backyard, filling the space with beautiful natural light and fresh sea breezes. Sit here for your morning coffee or come together in the evenings watching the sky change hue overhead. The front and backyard are fully fenced for kids to play outdoors, while an elevated section features a fire pit between reclining chairs, perfect for after-dinner get-togethers. The home can be accessed via the back garden if you want to avoid the stairs. The living room is set with comfortable sofas to relax at the end of the day. There’s a TV and board games for your entertainment along with air-conditioning to keep things cool during summer. The full kitchen allows guests to prepare meals at home with a large dining table also doubling as a dedicated workspace. All three bedrooms are well presented for a good night’s sleep. The first and second bedrooms each contain a queen-sized bed, set with side tables and reading lights. Combination bunk beds in the third bedroom are ideal for those travelling with kids or in a group and can sleep five guests. The neat bathroom highlights both a bathtub and a separate shower, making it easy to refresh after a dip in the surf. Guests will also have access to internal laundry facilities with a washing machine and dryer, ideal for longer stays. Parking is provided in the carport for two cars.
