Queenscliff 1 Learmonth Street
Inspired Edwardian Renovation...with a Coastal Twist!
Aside from the obviously appealing facade of this flawlessly presented home there is a treasure trove of divine details awaiting your discovery inside, far from the least of which is the completely unexpected amount of space offered in the split level architecturally designed addition to the original 1920s cottage...just wait to see how many times you hold your breath in awe as you wander through!
Dedicated to adults, the original portion of the home is a relaxing retreat from the everyday busyness of life with a bright, airy master bedroom and adjoining private sitting area/study with full ensuite bathroom. Up the stairs and into a child's dream are two attic bedrooms with dormer windows complete with built in seats overlooking Swan Bay and the customary angled rooflines which add a fairy tale character to the huge rooms.
The lower level of this delightful home is where the family will gather and mingle to entertain, share a meal and just chill out in one of two sitting areas, both with patio doors onto the courtyard garden. The finish in this area is truly reminiscent of times gone by with the traditional antique white cabinetry and timber benchtops but with a subtle modern coastal feel displayed in the resin finished concrete floor of the stunningly converted garage.
All throughout this home are elements of surprise with cleverly positioned picture windows capturing both light and artistic views. The original floorboards of the cottage have been restored, polished and complimented by their modern equivalent in the remainder of the home and storage is available in the most unusual of spaces making the most of every nook and cranny...literally!
There is no doubt that the renovation of this period home was completed to a very high standard with hydronic heating, period light fittings where appropriate, picture rails and Edwardian arch in the entry hall, full china suites in the two WC's, frosted glass walls on the massive shower in the downstairs bathroom set off by a vintage vanity basin and a classic coastal colour scheme to tie the decor together.
The obvious bonus of this property is its prime location within a moments' walk of water, beaches, Queenscliff's historic and trendy main street and also the popular marina. Just far enough away from the centre of things to be rewarded with the calming quiet you desire, number 1 Learmonth Street answers all of your needs...and some you didn't even know you had!

Important Information
Fletchers Area Guide Queenscliff, VIC 3225
Situated on Bellarine Peninsula and the entrance to Port Phillip Bay, Queenscliff's first residents came in the 1850s. The settlement received a fillip 20 years later when a rail service connected the town to Geelong. Today, that rail service only runs 16 km from Drysdale - now as a tourist attraction. The Bellarine Rail Trail is a walking and cycling track that largely follows the railway line. Historical buildings abound in and around Queenscliff's commercial centre.
