Alright, tradies, tinkerers, pool lovers and anyone who's ever dreamed of a backyard big enough to actually do something with β this one's for you.
Sitting proudly on a huge 1,742mΒ² (approx) block in one of Highton's favourite streets, this property is equal parts "finally, somewhere to put all my stuff" and "let's never leave the backyard again." Move-in ready, packed with clever extras, and with room to grow into the future β this is the kind of place that gets better the longer you look at it.
Calling All Shed Enthusiasts...
Let's start with the bit that'll really get your pulse racing: a whopping 12.8m x 10.2m shed with reinforced concrete flooring and its own car hoist (yours if you want it!). Cars, a trailer, the caravan, tools, stock, the lot β it all fits, with room to spare. Three garage doors give you serious flexibility, including a motorised centre and left door, so getting in and out is a breeze. There's even 15amp single-phase power on tap for whatever your trade or hobby throws at you. Oh, and there's a bonus studio with its own shower and toilet too β man cave, home office, teenage retreat or guest space, you decide.

Now Let's Talk About That Backyard...
Picture this: a massive 88,000L solar-heated saltwater pool, glistening under all-day north sun, topped up by its very own 18,000L tank. Kids splashing, drinks in hand, the fire pit crackling under the pergola once the sun goes down β this backyard was basically built for good times. And when you're not poolside, wander the garden and pick your own fig, apple, lemon, lime, orange, mandarin, peach or nectarine β yes, really, it's all here.
Importantly: (Pool running costs covered by solar panels)
A Home That Just Works
Inside, it's warm, welcoming and ready for you to move straight in. The open-plan living and dining spills out to the entertaining areas (naturally), and the kitchen means business with a Smeg 900 upright oven, gas cooktop, electric oven and Kleenmaid dishwasher β plus a sneaky appliance cupboard in the pantry to keep things looking tidy.
Four bedrooms give everyone their own space, ceiling fans keep every room breezy, and a brand-new Mitsubishi reverse-cycle system (plus a Fujitsu split system in the second living area) means you'll be comfortable whatever the season throws at you. The main bathroom is a treat with a 2.1m frameless shower and a spa bath for those "I deserve this" nights, while the ensuite spoils you with heated towel rails and its own frameless shower. Hot water's sorted too, thanks to a gas storage system backed up by solar for extra efficiency.
Solar That Basically Pays for the Pool
There's a hefty 5kW, 27-panel solar system sitting on the shed roof, doing some serious heavy lifting β enough, in fact, to more or less cover the cost of running that gorgeous pool. Sunshine working for you, not against your power bill.
And Then There's Highton...
Because let's face it, you're not just buying a house, you're buying a lifestyle. This one sits in the much-loved Highton Primary School catchment, with Belmont High School nearby too. Highton Shopping Village is just around the corner for your coffee and grocery runs, and there's no shortage of great schooling options close by including Montpellier Primary, St Joseph's College and The Geelong College.
Weekends are made for the Barwon River trails, a stroll through Queens Park, or a wander around Balyang Sanctuary. Footy fans have GMHBA Stadium close by, and when you need to venture further afield, Waurn Ponds Shopping Centre, Deakin University, Epworth Geelong Hospital and the Geelong CBD and waterfront are all an easy drive away.
