30-32 Edwards Point Road, St LeonardsVIC

Less than three years old, this sustainable residence creates a private oasis overlooking the nature reserve.

Architecturally designed by Geoff Clarke, the home's striking exterior was inspired by the local Orange-Bellied Parrot. A selection of eco-friendly and recycled materials are showcased throughout, with the exterior's Silvertop Ash cladding designed to fade and blend harmoniously with the surrounding environment.

Inside, raked ceilings and fresh white walls enhance the contemporary interiors. You'll love that this two-storey layout establishes a beautiful indoor-outdoor connection, with several balconies enticing you to enjoy the fresh air and admire the native birdlife.

Upstairs is home the main living room, where you can sit back and admire picturesque sunsets over the reserve. The open plan dining/kitchen zone also showcases a tranquil outlook, with the kitchen boasting stone benchtops and cleverly-designed storage. The imported Japanese-tiled splashback adds an eclectic touch, while stainless steel appliances include an AEG dishwasher, AEG double wall oven, and Artusi 900mm gas cooktop.

The Master Bedroom will delight with a walk-in robe and en suite with open shower. You'll feel worlds away from the hustle and bustle of everyday life as you wake up to see birds flying over the treetops.

Downstairs, the layout is wonderfully versatile. The spacious rumpus room is ideal as a home studio, with large double doors opening onto the driveway. The second bedroom features direct access to the main bathroom, while the third bedroom/office flows onto the backyard. Stone benchtops grace both bathrooms and the laundry.

The spacious backyard entices you to enjoy the perks of country-style living with veggie gardens, a young orchard and a thriving raspberry patch. Home to native gardens and a firepit zone, the low-maintenance front yard is ideal for laidback gatherings with friends.

The side gate is perfect for storing a caravan, boat or trailer. Other eco-friendly features include five split-system air conditioners, double-glazing, double insulation, 5.2KW of solar (connected to the grid), and a rainwater tank with pump.

Occupying approx. 659m2, this seaside residence inspires you to immerse yourself in nature. So why not stroll through the neighbouring reserve to Charlie's Hole Lookout? Or enjoy a lazy summer day on the beach? The Edwards Points Wildlife Reserve and St Leonards Yacht Club are right at your fingertips, while local shops and St Leonards Primary School are a short drive away.
