Just across the road from the Prosser River, "Wainfleet" is a sanctuary by the sea in popular Orford.
Fully renovated and beautifully decorated as a modern beach house, the spacious 3 bedroom home is light, bright, and airy and ready for family entertaining.
Open-plan kitchen, living, and dining areas are the heart of the home, letting in plenty of natural light and views of the Prosser River and jetties, just across the quiet residential street.
Fully equipped kitchen with modern appliances and a large 8-seat dining table for relaxed home-cooked dinners. Split system heating and cooling as well as a wood fire in the lounge to utilise for summer comfort or winter warmth.
Three generously sized bedrooms: the master bedroom has a king bed and features an en-suite; the second bedroom a queen bed, and bedroom 3 has a queen and double beds and a single bed, ideal for kids to share.
The renovated bathroom is spacious, with its classic white tile and black tapware matching the home’s style, and features a laundry room with a new washer and dryer.
Outside, enjoy the undercover deck with outdoor setting and Weber BBQ for long summer evenings, as well as the large backyard for children to enjoy.
Step across the road to the Prosser River, take a short walk to Shelly Beach, or take a short drive to the popular Spring Beach.
For a morning brew and breakfast, Wattlebanks Café and IGA Supermarket are only 200 metres away.
Fill your days with hiking, cycling, diving, swimming, and water activities. Take a short ferry to Maria Island National Park for a day of stunning wildlife and history.
