7 Ward Street, St Leonards VIC 3223

This superb residence presents an idyllic haven in the seaside town of St Leonards.

Complete with a stunning extension, designed by a local architect, the home leaves you nothing to do except move in and enjoy. The passive-solar design works in harmony with the environment, helping to naturally regulate the home’s temperature throughout the year.

The relaxed interiors entice you to slow down from your fast-paced life, with tranquil gardens captured through every window. Tassie Oak floorboards are showcased throughout, while a raked ceiling with clerestory windows makes a stylish statement in the open plan living/dining/kitchen zone. An abundance of north-eastern sunlight sweeps through this generous living zone, creating a beautiful setting for both relaxation and entertaining loved ones.

The kitchen is perfection with clean-lined cabinetry, a semi-integrated Bosch dishwasher, and Westinghouse stainless steel oven and gas cooktop. A stone benchtop enhances the island bench, which conveniently doubles as a breakfast bar.

Overlooking the front garden, the lounge inspires you to sit back and unwind. Three bedrooms (two with built-in robes) are serviced by the main bathroom, which is also home to the European laundry. The majority of the home features double-glazed windows, while a split-system air conditioner and ceiling fans provide extra comfort.

Home to a wonderland of native gardens, the north-facing backyard creates your very own outdoor oasis. So why not enjoy afternoon drinks on the deck as you admire this gorgeous setting? Or pick fresh fruit and veggies from the kitchen garden? The outdoor shower (hot and cold) is the perfect place to wash off after your morning swim.

The powered home studio will instantly appeal to artists and home business owners alike. Two driveways and a single carport provide ample off-street parking, with double gates offering parking for one vehicle beside the home. It’s clear to see that no details were spared, with additional features including full insulation, re-plumbing, re-wiring and re-roofing.

This family-friendly neighbourhood promises a blissful lifestyle. Public transport and local sporting grounds are a heartbeat from your front door, while St Leonards Primary School is within walking distance. The beach is moments away for a swim or leisurely stroll, while local shops take care of the essentials. Enjoy easy access to the boat ramp, St Leonards Golf Club and the region’s finest wineries.
