31 Island Drive, Torquay, Vic 3228

Dreamt of a simpler life? Where the green grass of home is sweeter than any that might be on the other side of the fence? Where the fence itself encases a vast amount of space, securing the boundary of your double allotment and providing a frame for your Federation style home to sit within? Just because you choose to live a simpler life, doesn't mean it has to be boring, shabby or without an incredible Surfcoast lifestyle.

This charming property offers purchasers the opportunity to reap the rewards of seeds long since planted and lovingly tended by the current owners. A home delightfully appealing both inside and out, and a well-established potager garden just 500m from ocean beaches should satisfy your every need. Custom designed by the current owners, the floor plan delivers large, airy rooms laid out to create an easy flow perfect for entertaining and would suit the needs of retirees or smaller families.

From the comfortable living room to the huge kitchen/dining you are invited either out to the covered, paved alfresco area or through to the three super-sized bedrooms, with the master having direct access to the entertaining area via a patio door. The bedrooms share the spacious family bathroom, further complimented by a separate powder room. The use of space within this property is actually very clever. As well as the extensive storage areas, every nook and cranny is completely utilised with, for example, a study area adjacent to the double built-in pantry in the meals area, or the sizeable workshop behind the double garage and a secure carport for boats/caravans tucked away from the street.

Presented to the highest standard, you can really feel the care that has been bestowed upon this property. It is evident right throughout the home but is probably most visible in the productive vegetable garden and prolific fruiting of nurtured trees. With a sizeable water tank to feed them all, there is no reason why you cannot be living that simpler, more self-sufficient life that you are looking for but you'd be doing so in great comfort and style.
