1191 Ghazeepore Road, Torquay VIC 3228

Subtle in texture and tone, though contemporary, the building melds with its surrounding environment beautifully. Situated with a northern, passive solar aspect, respect for the environment was a key element of consideration for the design team. Polished concrete floors contrasted with crisp white interior walls and decor reflect and draw in the natural light captured through double glazed windows meaning comfort for the family through all seasons, as well as lessening the need to utilise the ducted heating or gas log fire.

Offering four substantial bedrooms in the main body of the home, the master suite (with WIR, ensuite bathroom, small private office and direct access to the gardens) is separated from the remaining three by the open, central living area. Here, a modern kitchen with large stone topped island and butlers pantry allow for easy entertaining with an adjoining decked alfresco providing the perfect space to dine. A rumpus room at the far end of the children's wing is further testament to a families R&R time.

Speaking of rest and relaxation, the previous occupants of this property saw the potential to tap into the needs of others desire for an escape from life's fast pace. By offering guest accommodation in a substantial self-contained studio (with private entry) above the oversized double garage, they built a very successful B&B business that generated an equally substantial annual income that you might consider implementing once again?

Set on almost 2 acres within easy access of Torquay's shops, cafes and surf beaches, this property also provides excellent connections to Geelong, Melbourne and the greater Surf Coast so, your commute to and from work will hardly be a chore especially when you have this as your sanctuary to come home to.
