32 Marlin Drive, Ocean Grove VIC 3226

With two bright, open living spaces, a magnificent master suite and a west-facing sundeck, this 4-BR abode exudes character and warmth, and feels like home as soon as you step inside. Drawn into the light-filled spaces, it’s easy to picture a relaxed coastal life of comfort and contentment. Positioned close to primary schools, a secondary college, childcare, sporting facilities, shops and the beach, it’s the perfect family home.

Featuring high ceilings, clerestory windows to capture the north light and hardy bamboo flooring, the generous, sundrenched main living area at the heart of the home is a versatile space for relaxation, reflection and entertaining. Glass sliding doors lead to a wonderful elevated and private split-level deck. With a western aspect and backdrop of established gums, it provides the ultimate spot to curl up with a book in the sun, or host happy hour with family and friends.

More like a parents’ retreat, the grand master suite is light and roomy, has a generous WIR and modern ensuite with oversized shower, and offers direct access to the decking. A mezzanine-level study nook allows establishment of a home office while still feeling connected to the rest of the home.

Well-equipped, the functional kitchen comes with SS appliances including a Blanco dishwasher, ample storage and bench space, and overlooks the front living area and inviting dining zone. A separate wing encompasses the 3 minor bedrooms, each with double BIRs and sharing access to the home’s large main bathroom with stone feature tiling, bath, shower, vanity and WC. Split system ACs, a Rinnai heater and ceiling fans maintain year-round climate control. The tandem garage provides secure parking, and the rear yard with native plantings and lawn is a great space for play.

This home is move-in ready, and will appeal to families, investors or holiday home seekers.
