11 Canterbury Jetty Road, Rye, Vic 3941

Private behind a wall of moonah trees and just 200m from the gentle lapping waves of Tyrone Foreshore, this seaside hideaway is an inviting and laidback retreat perfect for holidaymakers or sea-changers alike.

Pleasantly presented, filled with light and awash in a relaxed beachside ambience, the household can spread out comfortably with a choice of two living areas and a seamless connection between indoor and outdoor spaces.

The central kitchen boasts timber countertops, a Bosch dishwasher, five-burner gas cooktop and a stainless-steel Viali oven, perfect for cooking up delicious dinners in between exploring the eateries at nearby Blairgowrie village or Rye's bustling town centre.

Sliding glass doors off the family room entice you out to a long verandah, while the covered patio provides a soothing space to relax with after-beach nibbles and drinks as the kids play safely in the easy-care coastal gardens.

Well-appointed for both permanent living or fuss-free weekend escapes yet with exciting scope to update, the single-level layout provides a master bedroom with walk-in robe and ensuite and a full second bathroom down a separate hall beside the junior bedrooms.

A short drive to surf breaks, golf courses, horse-riding trails, wineries and the Mornington Peninsula's beloved hot springs, the property includes two split-system heating and air-conditioning units and off-street parking behind tall dual entry gates.
