104 Hesse Street, Queenscliff, Vic 3225

An enchanting vision of Federation beauty blending timeless charm with contemporary comforts, ‘Waratah’ exemplifies the character of its c1910 beginnings, while delivering a privileged lifestyle opportunity in an exclusive main street setting.

Classic by design, a weatherboard façade and bullnose verandah welcome you to explore the single level floorplan where a collection of extremely large formal and informal living zones, and an abundance of accommodation reflect the property’s boarding house heritage.

Flanking a central spine, four of the home’s five bedrooms are appointed with their own ensuites, as glossy black flooring, lofty 3.5m-high timber-lined ceilings, cast-iron fireplaces, and beautiful leadlight windows will have you swooning over the period detail.

A fifth bedroom offers versatility to function as a home office, while a designated library with ensuite extends the accommodation options, making this home the perfect all-rounder for a growing family or exciting short-stay rental prospect.

A formal lounge, one of two spacious living areas, provides a welcoming space to retreat beside the soothing glow of a gas log fire, providing the perfect complement to an expansive open-plan living zone at the rear, where you can cater to a crowd from the well-appointed kitchen, grab a drop from your underground cellar, and spill outdoors to bask in the sunny surrounds of a full-length alfresco deck.

A freestanding studio with its own bathroom facilities extends the versatility of this peerless residence, which comes appointed with a host of modern comforts including reverse cycle air-conditioning (main living, library, and four bedrooms), a wood burning fire, and a 16-panel solar energy system.

Positioned to enjoy an advantageous lifestyle, a relaxed stroll uncovers the shopping and culinary delights of the historic village centre, picturesque foreshore, and thriving harbour precinct.
