42 Ocean View Avenue, Red Hill South
"Avalon" - A Five Acre Sanctuary
Nestled within magical gardens, are two homes for all seasons waiting to welcome you. Landscaped and self-sustaining, a diverse range of flora thrives in ever-changing colour. Mature specimen trees tower throughout, and a citrus grove yields year-round fruit. Come sit on the front verandah, enjoy its iconic vineyard views and beyond, Westernport Bay – your horizon.
Lovingly restored, the mid-century cottage exudes warmth and character in surprisingly spacious rooms. External bluestone touches echo inside. Original door-windows, Baltic pine flooring, quirky internal doors and locks are retained. Dedicated cooks will appreciate two separate ovens, concealed pantries and double dish-drawer. The large main bathroom cleverly doubles as laundry.
Seamlessly flowing from old to new, a Danish inspired extension houses the dining/family area and master suite. For fashion collectors: a 5.4 mt wall of solid hemlock sliding doors – the wardrobe. For lovers of space: 3.3 mt of barged ceiling height throughout.
A short stroll through gardens brings you to the second home. This self-contained studio features a main bedroom with walk-in robe, separate bathroom/laundry, separate toilet, galley kitchen, living/dining area and tree-top mezzanine. Here you will enjoy privacy, panoramic garden views and abundant native fauna.
The current owners dreamed of a second storey addition; the original cottage crowned full length. That dream might be yours.
Proudly marketed by the team at Peninsula Sotheby's International Realty.
