45 Whalers Road, Encounter Bay SA 5211

This uniquely positioned home, will be sure to impress and will not disappoint!

Designed by John S Hales Architects to capture the light and maximise the panoramic ocean and island views on offer. The home was the winner of House of the Year Awards for quality of build and design - a home definitely ahead of its time, with two stunning features being a curved 'whaling wall' in the wide entrance foyer, while upstairs a bridge connects the master bedroom suite to the large living space.
The commanding panoramic views are breathtaking, taking in "The Bluff" and Wright Island at Encounter Bay, the Victor Harbor township, Granite Island, Hayborough, Middleton and Goolwa. On a clear day you can see all the way down to the Coorong.
The home is sited on a large but very easy care 925m2 allotment (approx) and is disposed to four good size bedrooms and two bathrooms, with a fabulous open plan living space upstairs. Two of three downstairs bedrooms have sea views - the views are enhanced by overlooking "Miri Miri Reserve", ensuring a beautiful outlook whilst preserving the fabulous view. The third bedroom has a garden view - all have built-in robes. The main bathroom is spacious and comes with a bath, shower alcove, vanity and wc. The laundry completes the downstairs floorplan.
Upstairs will delight - high vaulted ceilings a feature - the sense of space amazing and the panoramic views - they are to die for! The house is original, however the design is timeless, creating what is today, an exceptional coastal residence/beach house. The open plan space incorporates the kitchen/dining/living room, with picture windows taking full advantage of the views on offer - "The Bluff", Wright Island, Seal Rock, Victor Harbor township and the Causeway going out to Granite Island. The large steel curved balcony & timber deck is accessed from the living room - alfresco living/dining at its finest!
The master bedroom suite is equally amazing - the clever design has created a bridge linking the living area with the master bedroom and the marble tiled ensuite bathroom. The opulent ensuite comes with a spa which was designed to capture the stunning sea views, the shower with its curved glass wall, bidet and wc. The bright master bedroom is north facing and has beautiful hills views looking out towards the Hindmarsh Valley - there is a walk-in robe.
Features are many and include a generous 2 car auto garage found under the main roof, concrete suspended slab to the upstairs level and rendered solid brick construction - this is one very well-built house!
An exceptional design, superbly built, in a fabulous unique position!
