THE LOCATION Simply park your car and walk everywhere! Situated just a few minutes walk to the cafes, provedores and boutiques of the Barwon Heads village, our modern townhouse is located on a quiet, tree-lined street just a block from the bowling club and tennis courts of the town's village park. There is a large 24 hour Apco service station located just one minute walk away that has a range of grocery needs and 'food to go'. It's also near walking trails, the Barwon river, beaches for all ages and three highly rated golf courses (including the renowned BHGC). This is a prized location in central Barwon Heads' 'old' precinct. THE HOME Upon entering you are greeted by spacious high 3.6m ceilings and a wide hallway of Victorian Ash floorboards. The pale colour of the timber and the interior decor's neutral tones bring a light (and practical) touch to the home's hallway and living areas. Elsewhere, bedrooms have been laid with high quality, soft-underfoot, wool carpets. The master bedroom is situated on the lower level, quietly separated from the two bedrooms upstairs. It has a generous walk in robe and a five-star ensuite with an open shower and heated towel rails. Up a short flight of stairs, the upper level consists of two bedrooms with built-in-robes. One has a comfortable Queen sized bed and the other has a set of bunks perfect for the kids or extra guests. Between the upstairs bedrooms, is a study nook with an apple iMac computer for internet access. The house offers wifi connectivity. There is room here for another bed or cot if needed and a is a portacot and a foldout camp bed are available. There is an area on the landing useful as a reading nook or child's lounge and a shared bathroom. The bathroom has a separate bath and shower and a Rinnai digital 'touch' temperature controlled hot water system.
