Overview

This finely crafted residence offers a rare blend of spaciousness, quality finishes, and a unique connection to the expansive Geelong West Oval, setting it apart in a highly prized location. The property’s direct access to the oval provides an extraordinary sense of open space reminiscent of a large backyard but without the traditional maintenance burden, ideal for families, pet owners, and those who value outdoor lifestyle.

Originally designed and built by the owner-builder, the home boasts enduring elements such as cedar ceilings and timber accents that speak to careful craftsmanship and attention to detail. The floor plan is thoughtfully arranged with a welcoming living area that seamlessly flows into the kitchen and dining space, accentuating comfortable family living and entertaining opportunities. Two bedrooms positioned on the ground floor include built-in robes, supported by a conveniently located central bathroom.

Upstairs is a private master retreat featuring a walk-in wardrobe, an ensuite, and a second living area awash with northern natural light and offering delightful views over the oval. This level provides residents with a serene sanctuary away from the main living areas.

  • Ducted heating and reverse-cycle split systems ensure year-round comfort.
  • An extensive undercover outdoor area adds versatile, low-maintenance space suitable for outdoor gatherings or relaxation.
  • Excellent storage solutions throughout enhance functionality.
  • A tandem double lock-up garage and additional off-street parking accommodate up to five vehicles, with flexibility for larger vehicles such as caravans or boats.

Situated within walking distance of local schools, vibrant Pakington Street shopping and dining precinct, cafes, parks, and public transport, with easy access to Geelong’s central business district, it offers an appealing lifestyle for a diverse range of buyers including families, downsizers, professionals, and investors seeking a convenient and low-maintenance home in a tightly held neighborhood.
