Timeless Californian Bungalow With Expansive Entertaining Deck

Built in 1926, this captivating Californian Bungalow fuses timeless charm with modern beachside living, offering family life on a grand scale. In a highly sought-after lifestyle pocket, step out your front door and turn left for the beach, or right for the village - with the pristine sand, station and cafes steps away. Beyond the gorgeous arched entry, double doors open to a long hallway, soaring ornate ceilings with exquisite drop garland motifs, leadlight windows and timber flooring. The formal front lounge with library and cosy open fireplace invites you to relax, while the master bedroom is its own retreat, with walk-in and built-in robes and an ensuite, together with a second ground-floor bedroom and clawfoot-tub bathroom. Upstairs, the kids claim their own zone with two robed bedrooms, a modern bathroom with separate powder room, third living area and study nook for homework. At the heart of it all is light filled open-plan living and dining with its cosy gas log fire and stacking doors for when the party spills onto the alfresco deck with its built-in barbeque and wood fireplace. The warm, welcoming Miele kitchen is the social hub, perfect to cook dinner while the kids play in view. Appointed with zoned ducted heating, evaporative cooling, a three-car garage with mezzanine storage plus carport for the caravan or trailer, set behind secure automatic gates to a long driveway - ideal for a cricket pitch or bike riding in the sun. An increasingly rare find on 851m² approx., this family beauty is perfectly positioned and ready for the next generation.
