Positioned just a short 400-metre stroll from the pristine sands of 16th Beach, this spacious family home in Rye offers a blend of coastal lifestyle and practical living on a generous 1,204 square metre level allotment. The property's dual access points from Marcia Avenue and Andrea Street enhance vehicle flexibility and storage options, an uncommon and valuable feature in this sought-after beachside location.

The welcoming entrance, framed by established native gardens and a charming crazy-paved driveway, leads into a home enriched by beautiful hardwood timber floors and classic Colonial-style windows fitted with plantation shutters. These timeless elements contribute to the home's character, complementing its overall warmth and inviting atmosphere.

This residence is thoughtfully designed to support family living with four bedrooms plus a dedicated study, allowing space for work, study, or hobbies. The primary bedroom enjoys privacy and comfort with its own ensuite and walk-in robe, while the main bathroom indulges with a corner bath, enhancing relaxation options for the household.

At the heart of the home, the well-appointed kitchen features stainless steel double wall ovens, gas cooking, and a Bosch dishwasher, making it the ideal space for both daily meals and entertaining. Multiple living areas include a living room centered around an ultimate wood-burning fire, perfect for cosy winter evenings. Comprehensive climate control is provided through hydronic heating and split system heating and cooling, ensuring comfort throughout the seasons.

Outdoor living is facilitated by front and rear decks that extend the living spaces into landscaped surroundings. The fully fenced grounds offer safe and ample room for children and pets, while established native gardens enrich the privacy and serenity of the outdoor environment. The sizable double lock-up garage, additional storage room, and fully fenced grounds provide ample secure storage and lifestyle support.
