48 Sussex Road, Rye, Vic 3941

Elevated on a ridge, where spectacular views down a sweeping valley to Port Philip Bay in the North match the rugged beauty to Cape Schanck Lighthouse in the South, this stunning coastal home promises unparalleled privacy and serenity. Renovated to perfection, the three-bedroom residence invites a sense of calm, blending seamlessly with the surrounding native gardens that burst with seasonal colour. The open-plan living and dining areas, highlighted by gently raked ceilings and a slow-combustion wood heater, adjoin a country-style kitchen equipped with quality appliances, including an integrated Bosch dishwasher and intelligent storage solutions.

Perfect for entertaining, the living room flows effortlessly onto an enormous 7.8m x 6.9m covered deck, where lush green gardens and water views create a stunning backdrop to any occasion. Enclosed with transparent cafe blinds, it serves as an all-weather haven, extending to the well-maintained lawns and gardens with a veggie patch, fruit trees and a large out of view garden shed. Each of the three spacious bedrooms is bright and fitted with built-in robes, while the central bathroom features a bath and walk-in shower, and an additional powder room enhances convenience. A bonus insulated utility room of enormous dimensions offers flexibility as a recreation space, home office, or extra bedroom suite, with the potential to extend through the hallway to maximise on integrating the internal footprint.

Additional highlights include split system heating/cooling, a large laundry with ample storage, a 2500L water bladder under the deck with pump, and generous parking. Ideally located so close to Rye's vibrant foreshore precinct, renowned day spas, golfing, hot springs, freeway access, and excellent schools, this property encapsulates an enviable Peninsula lifestyle.
