WALK THROUGH THE HOME WITH US
Step inside and follow the hallway as the home gently unfolds, where deep olive vertical panelling and soft neutral ceilings set a calm, moody tone from the moment you arrive. Warm overhead pendants cast a gentle glow above, guiding you past four thoughtfully positioned bedrooms—two at the front, two further along—each designed as its own quiet retreat.
Within each room, natural timber joinery, built-in desks and wardrobes are paired with warm LED accents, while bedside wall sconces create a soft, ambient light perfect for winding down at the end of the day. Settle in with your laptop for a slow morning of work, unwind with a movie in bed, or simply enjoy the stillness of your own private space before joining the rest of your group.
Each bedroom has its own ensuite, complete with a vanity, toilet, and walk-in shower, while the final bedroom features a spacious, accessible ensuite designed with ease and comfort in mind. Tucked neatly into the centre of the hallway, the Euro laundry offers added convenience for longer stays.
At the end of the hall, the home opens into a warm and welcoming kitchen and dining space, the heart of the home. To the right, the kitchen is fully equipped with a large fridge, stove and oven and plenty of crockery & appliances, making it easy to prepare everything from simple breakfasts to shared evening meals. A breakfast bar sits just behind, perfect for casual coffee moments or grazing platters while others cook.
Opposite, the dining area brings everyone together around a round black table, softened by a Scandinavian-style built-in bench and additional seating. It’s a space made for slow dinners, shared stories and easy mornings before heading out to explore Geelong.
Glass doors open to the rear yard, where a ramp leads you into a quiet outdoor setting bordered by garden beds and greenery. Bench seating sits among the bushes, offering a peaceful place to enjoy your morning coffee, an afternoon break in the sun, or a quiet moment at the end of the day.
Beyond the garden, a rear gate provides access to your private car space, completing a stay that balances moody, eclectic styling with the ease and comfort of a thoughtfully designed home.
