Charming Oliver's Hill Family Retreat

Gracing an exclusive Olivers Hill location, just metres from the shore and in the coveted Frankston High School zone, this charming, fully renovated four-bedroom home presents spacious and contemporary family living complemented by an outstanding alfresco zone featuring an in-ground swimming pool and a spa.<br/><br/>Named 'Lochaber', the circa 1950 weatherboard home on a 744-square-metre approx. retains plenty of character and charm, while a major renovation and extension several years ago has resulted in an intuitive, family-friendly layout with an expansive open-plan area designed for effortless living, large-scale entertaining and indoor/outdoor connectivity. Contemporary enhancements including a floating timber floor and plantation shutters enrich the home's calming, coastal-inspired aesthetic and a wood fire heater in the original front sitting room adds a cozy ambience.<br/><br/>Positioned in the heart of the home, the gleaming gourmet kitchen features a Fisher & Paykel freestanding 900mm gas/electric cooker, island bench/breakfast bar and a walk-in pantry, while the expansive living/dining area has a gas log fireplace, bespoke joinery, and is capped off with a built-in wet bar. The open plan area opens out via glass sliding doors to the fully paved and decked alfresco zone with a solar heated swimming pool, an undercover dining area, and a built-in spa deck all set in a tranquil low-maintenance garden setting with established trees and lush borders. Back inside, the master suite has an ensuite with corner bath, built-in shower, twin vanities and a fully fitted double walk-in robe and direct access to the yard, while the additional three bedrooms are zoned in the front section of the home, all with built-in robes, and there is a stunning floor-to-ceiling-tiled bathroom, with a freestanding tub, walk-in shower and stone vanity. <br/><br/>Additional features include gas ducted heating, split-system heating and cooling, ceiling fans in all bedrooms, a full-size laundry and plenty of storage cupboards throughout. There is a double remote-operated garage with a rear access roller door, plus off-street parking for two vehicles, and a large garden/storage shed. <br/>On the market for the first time in three decades, this prized, Frankston South address is nestled between the Bay and Sweetwater Creek in the coveted Frankston High and Derinya Primary school zones. Walk through Sweetwater Creek reserve to Norman Avenue shops/cafe, and just moments from Daveys Bay, Olivers Hill boat ramp, foreshore parkland and beaches.
