Overview

Situated in the highly sought-after back beach location of Rye, this property is a distinctive coastal escape that skillfully marries retro architectural charm with breathtaking panoramic views. Set on a substantial 878m² elevated allotment, the home delivers an ever-changing vista encompassing ocean glimpses, Cape Schanck, Main Ridge, and Rye's front beach, inviting residents to immerse themselves in the natural beauty of the Mornington Peninsula.

The house’s architectural individuality is evident in its exposed timber beams, elegant parquetry flooring, and abundant windows that welcome in light and nature, creating a warm and inviting living environment. The upper floor features a spacious open plan living, dining, and kitchen area, anchored by a large open fireplace that provides a cozy atmosphere year-round. While the kitchen retains its original character, it serves as a charming functional heart of the home, enhanced by extensive windows framing the surrounding treetops and horizon.

Arguably the home's centerpiece is the vast timber deck extending the full length of the upper level. This outdoor space is perfect for dining, entertaining, or quiet moments of reflection with a morning coffee, all while soaking in the spectacular elevated views.

Accommodation comprises three bedrooms on the lower level, connected by a generous open walkway, alongside a central bathroom, separate laundry, and an additional wet area with a second shower and toilet. This layout offers practical separation between living and sleeping zones. However, the split-level configuration involving stairs may not suit everyone.

With its unique design, exceptional setting, and retro character, this residence presents ample opportunity for personalization and enhancement. It appeals to those seeking a home with personality, potential, and a peaceful seaside lifestyle in one of Rye's most desirable locales.
