6 Francis Street, Belmont

Beauty Beyond Compare!

Behind this magnificent Californian bungalow facade lays Geelong's best reformation of yesteryear. Situated just minutes from all amenities, no expense has been spared in this artisan restoration, secure behind its remote alarm and entry system.

The wide, hedge-lined driveway takes your eye with its footlights running its full length, as you alight the winding path to the brick pillared portico, the leadlight windows provide a glimpse of what lay behind. The Baltic pine reflects the morning sun; the sitting room with English cast iron fireplace and exquisite drapery. The main bedroom, with walk in robes, looks out over the garden through its bay window and the ensuite is reminiscent of a grand European hotel with resplendently tiled ensuite and spa.

Under the archway the ducted heating warms the air of the other two bedrooms also with built in robes are bright and carpeted serviced by another beautiful bathroom with tessellated tiles and quality fittings; a large laundry and concealed storage feature to one side and a beautifully fitted office to the other.

The glistening Jarrah kitchen, dining and air-conditioned family room is a sight to behold. European appliances adorn the sumptuous kitchen with butler's pantry, a bar has its own built in fridge and a built in sound system compliments the entertaining qualities of this prestigious home. Outside is the undercover alfresco patio that leads to the hedge-framed garden with its recycled watering system. A most magnificent brick garage with lead light windows enhancing its design has ample room for a studio/gymnasium. Another large shed hidden beyond completes this masterpiece of craftsmanship.
