53 Walker Street, Rippleside VIC 3215

Occupying approx. 488m2, this Californian Bungalow presents endless opportunities a heartbeat from the water’s edge. Whether you have plans to move straight in, restore the home to its former glory, or even extend upstairs to maximise the bay views, this home is an absolute treasure (STCA).

As you stand on the front porch, you can admire far-reaching views over the sparkling bay waters towards Eastern Park. Soaring ceilings and hardwood floors enrich the interiors, with art-deco features including hardwood doors and timber sash windows.

The dining room overlooks the front garden via a bay window, while the living room creates a generous setting for relaxation. The kitchen is well equipped with timber cabinetry and cooking appliances. Three bedrooms (one with built-in robes) share close access to the bathroom, while the sunroom soaks up the northern sunshine. Gas central heating and a split-system air conditioner provide comfort.

Mature gardens create privacy in the north-facing backyard, which is home to an abundance of fruit and citrus trees. Ample off-street parking includes a single garage, while the large garden shed provides plenty of outdoor storage.

This idyllic bayside setting promises a blissful family lifestyle. Both Rippleside Park and St Helens Park are a short stroll away, while the esplanade walking trails keep you connected to the Waterfront and Geelong CBD. Commuters will love that they can pick up a coffee as they walk to the North Geelong Train Station. Boating enthusiasts will also be in their element, with the Balmoral Quay Marina an instant away.
