18 Golf Links Road, Barwon Heads, Vic 3227

A private paradise encircled by beachside spoils, this breathtaking custom O’Dowd residence offers a lifestyle of peace and privilege within the exclusive and tightly held Golf Club precinct of Old Barwon Heads.

Thoughtfully designed to maximise its north-facing orientation, the home radiates with glorious natural light as lavish natural finishes including solid timber flooring and floor-to-ceiling windows underpin an undeniable connection to the idyllic surrounds.

Centrally positioned and set beneath a soaring cathedral ceiling, the main family hub is a highlight of the home’s comprehensive single level design, where open plan living and dining promote blissful relaxation beside the gentle flicker of an open fire. 

Quality appliances including 900mm wall oven, Bosch induction cooktop, and Miele dishwasher feature in the wraparound kitchen, while a vast butler’s pantry furthers the appeal for culinary enthusiasts.

Seamlessly, the flow continues through wall-to-wall glazing to an expansive alfresco deck with automated awning and gas barbecue connection, providing the perfect setting for hosting summer soirees as nearby ocean waves provide a soothing soundtrack, and the scent of salty sea air lingers on the breeze.

Tucked away down a separate hallway, the well-appointed bedroom accommodation includes a main suite delivering an oasis of tranquillity with built-in robes and a sumptuous full ensuite featuring a deep soaker tub with garden outlook.

Two additional bedrooms, both with built-in robes, are served by a central bathroom, while a second living area with built-in dual study space is expertly zoned to this wing, leaving family members spoiled for choice.

Set behind high fencing on a verdant 810sqm (approx.) allotment, the property offers an idyllic sense of peace and privacy yet is positioned just moments from Hitchcock Avenue’s chic village shopping and dining, spectacular surf beaches, the family-friendly river foreshore, and local golf course.

An oversized double garage plus coveted side access, hydronic heating, reverse cycle air-conditioning, a 16-panel solar electricity system, and under-house water storage complete this magical sea change or dreamy holiday hideaway.
