The Space:
If your wish list for holiday accommodation includes all the comforts of home, combined with a peaceful location, outdoor living and stunning natural surrounds, then welcome to this Torquay lifestyle gem!
‘Ocean Acres’ offers a unique experience amongst gum trees and the sounds of native birds. Only a short 5 minute drive to Torquay and Jan Juc’s beaches and shopping, this is your opportunity to stay at a peaceful retreat with beautiful natural views after days spent at the beach, local wineries or exploring The Great Ocean Road.
You will feel relaxed the moment you arrive, driving through the tree-lined streets on approach to the home. Surrounded by native gardens, the ambience of this property is enhanced by its position opposite native parkland, where you can stroll through protected remnant Ironbark forest to a children’s playground and BMX track.
Light-filled and full of comforts, this beautiful property is oriented to the north to capture the outlook over the resort-style outdoor area, with full span sliding doors to the expansive alfresco deck, pool and tennis court beyond. Enjoy the sun from the comfort of the outdoor dining setting and BBQ area, in full view of the kids in the pool, spa or tennis court.
(Notes:
-The tennis court is shaded in certain seasons and can be quiet wet, so please be careful in case of slippery surface.
-The pool is solar-heated only, therefore temperature fluctuates depending on the weather and will only warm up after a period of consistent hot weather in summer.
-The spa is outdoors and can be heated during your stay - please use it responsibly as we care for the environment).
Inside, you can expect to find comfortable furnishings and styling; a homely place full of heart. Whether you’re a family (or 2 families), or a group of friends visiting the Surf Coast, there is plenty of room for everyone to spread out and relax, or come together as a group. Choose a cosy spot with a book, or chill out in one of three living areas with WIFI, gas heater/fire and ducted heating. 2 Smart TV's (log in with your own Netflix/streaming account details to resume your own viewing history).
