Make Memories by the Water-Private Family Retreat!

Set on a generous approximately 3997 square meter allotment, this property offers a private family retreat just moments from the conveniences of Echuca. Tucked away off the Northern Highway, this residence provides a tranquil setting where family life unfolds against a peaceful water backdrop. The fully fenced backyard is ideal for children to play safely, while relaxed weekends and evenings can be spent enjoying the serene views and the glow of the water at dusk.

The warm and inviting brick home is designed for low maintenance and is well configured for family living. It features four bedrooms and a living area positioned at the front of the house. Comfort is ensured year-round with ducted reverse cycle heating and cooling throughout the home, which can be zoned to suit your preferences.

The kitchen is well appointed with modern appliances including a double sink, Asko dishwasher, gas (bottled) cooktop, and a Westinghouse wall oven. The light-filled open plan dining and living area invites family gatherings and social occasions. Additionally, there is a third living zone providing a private retreat for parents or teenagers, enhancing the home's versatility and making it perfect for family needs.

The master suite includes a sizeable walk-in robe and an ensuite featuring a double-sized shower. The remaining three spacious bedrooms all have built-in robes. An additional study room offers flexibility for working from home or can be converted into a fifth bedroom, as it also includes a built-in robe providing ample storage space.

Enjoy stunning views of the water and surrounding trees from the undercover alfresco area, which can be enclosed with manual bistro blinds. This outdoor space allows you to immerse yourself in nature, with frequent visits from local wildlife such as kookaburras, parrots, and cockatoos.

The backyard is securely fenced to keep pets safe and includes a 1 meg raw water allocation to maintain the gardens and lawn, supplemented by town water. A 3.5 kW solar system is installed to help minimize electricity costs.

For those requiring vehicle or caravan storage, the property features a partially insulated five-bay Ranbuild shed that is concreted and powered, including three-phase power. The roller door heights are approximately 2.5 meters and 2.3 meters. One bay has been converted into a fully lined man cave, complete with split system air conditioning/heating and carpet, making it an ideal party spot. There is also a garden shed for additional storage needs.

This property presents an exciting opportunity for additional income as a weekender or holiday home through platforms such as Airbnb, due to its ability to accommodate multiple family requirements.
