3 Brookes Street

Point Lonsdale VIC 3225

In a tightly held central position, this character-filled Old Lonsdale beach house on a 556sqm (approx.) block provides an idyllic retreat while being positioned just a 5-minute walk to the family-friendly Front Beach, Lonsdale Links golf course and the main street shops and cafes. Backing onto the extraordinary and historically-significant 'Arilpa', and immersed amongst ti-trees, being on this property feels like stepping back in time. Move in and enjoy as a laidback family beach house or alternatively this could be the ultimate site to build your dream home (STCA).

The 3-bedroom home is full of charm and showcases quaint original features throughout. Its circular-flowing floor plan includes a paved sunroom, a charming entranceway, two main bedrooms, a large bunk room to the rear, a colourful vintage bathroom with dual access WC and a comfortable open-plan living area. The lounge has a brick open fireplace and the kitchen comes with a classic timber bar-style benchtop, duck-egg blue cabinetry and a freestanding oven. Ducted heating ensures year-round comfort. Windows throughout serve to frame the surrounding garden, which is dense with native vegetation and full of birdlife. A carport and driveway allow for off-street parking and a rustic paved alfresco provides the setting to host casual BBQs with family and friends.

The coveted location adjoins the 'Arilpa' conservation reserve of coastal heathland to the south, providing an exquisite natural outlook over mature grass trees and other remnant vegetation. Alfred Deakin's 'Ballara' estate is right around the corner. There's a feeling of seclusion, privacy and exclusivity here, and a convenient coastal life on offer for your family to enjoy for many generations to come.
