About this property
Park Cottage Barwon Heads With Fire, Pet friendly
Summary:
Discover 'Park Cottage', a captivating abode where retro charm meets modern living, set in the heart of Barwon Heads. A nod to yesteryear, this beach house exudes vintage vibes across two living areas, four bedrooms, and two bathrooms. Bask in the sunny outdoor spaces amidst lush gardens or cosy up beside the woodfire heater. Located centrally and opposite 54 acres of vibrant parklands, it’s a prime spot for exploring the local riverside lifestyle made famous by the ‘village by the sea’.
The Space:
'Park Cottage' located at the end of the main street of Barwon Heads, and across from the park, offers a blend of vintage charm and relaxed coastal living, a feeling that is immediately apparent upon arrival. Outside, the cottage's allure extends to the garden and outdoor sitting areas. The front deck invites you to cook a BBQ and dine alfresco or simply soak up the sun amidst the lush greenery, while a secondary outdoor area provides a secluded space for morning coffee or sheltered dining. This is a home that truly celebrates outdoor living, with the 54 acre village parklands directly opposite the house, and the river beckoning at the end of the street.
Inside, original hardwood timber floors stretch throughout the house and each room is filled with natural light. Adorned with touches that hark back to a bygone era, the décor creates a warm and welcoming atmosphere.
The heart of the cottage is the main living area, a spacious room where a 'Nectre' woodfire heater sits ready to envelop you in its warmth on cool evenings. Here, the rustic charm of the interior design invites you to unwind with a good book, engage in conversations, or simply enjoy the peaceful ambience.
The secondary living area serves as an escape for quiet reflection or as an entertainment space with a Smart TV, complete with games, books, and space to play. The kitchen, with its retro tiles and cabinetry, provides all the modern conveniences needed to prepare meals whilst overlooking the dining area. Split system heating and cooling provides year-round climate comfort.
Four furnished bedrooms offer comfortable retreats, and all bedding and bath towels are provided for your coastal getaway (please BYO beach towels). The master bedroom features a Queen bed, an ensuite bathroom, and direct access to the west deck, offering a quiet nook to enjoy a special moment. The additional bedrooms, two with Queen beds and one with Twin Single beds, share the home’s second bathroom, which combines the laundry facilities.
Bedroom Configuration Summary:
Bedroom 1: Queen bed
Bedroom 2: Queen bed
Bedroom 3: Queen bed
Bedroom 4: Twin Single beds
*Families please BYO portacot/highchair, if required.
Other features of this cottage on the main street of Barwon Heads include a fully equipped kitchen (incl. microwave, dishwasher, and coffee pod machine), WiFi, fans, private off street parking for one car, and an outdoor shower to rinse off the sand. Bring your bikes for fantastic riverside rides, or the skateboards and scooters to play at the Skate Park. Surrounded by established trees, landscaped gardens, and secure fencing pets are permitted subject to House Rules. Please note there is a small open fish pond in the back yard.
'Park Cottage' is a haven where each day is an invitation to slow down, breathe in the sea air, and relish the simple joys of life in a home that feels like a step back in time yet thoroughly grounded in the comfort of today.

The Neighborhood:
In this idyllic setting, every day is an opportunity for a new adventure. Enjoy the Barwon Heads lifestyle with sports facilities right across the street, meander along the river trails, or simply enjoy the local café’s, restaurants and boutique shopping. And with the river at the end of your street, why not hire a Stand Up Paddleboard or cast a line and fish to your heart's content?
This picturesque seaside town inspires you to take long walks along the shoreline, go surfing at 13th Beach, or play golf at the exclusive Barwon Heads or 13th Beach Golf Clubs. Wander along Hitchcock Avenue to experience the local fare, with plenty more cafes, restaurants, wineries and breweries around the region. Adventure Park is also a great day out with the kids – approx. 10mins drive away. Explore day trips along The Great Ocean Road!
Getting Around:
'Park Cottage' is just a stroll away from the beautiful Barwon River and a boat ramp at Carr Street, inviting days on the river boating or fishing. With gated parking for one car, exploring the area is easy. And when it's time to step out, you’re centrally located to soak up Barwon Heads' quaint town charm, with shops, cafes, and the river's edge within easy reach.
Bring your bikes for fantastic riverside rides, or the skateboards and scooters to play at the Skate Park.
