26 Evans Street, Rye, Vic 3941

Some homes are defined by their position, others by their architecture, but every now and then a property comes along that offers something truly distinctive. Set within Rye's sought after back beach location, is a private coastal retreat where retro character, architectural individuality and an extraordinary 180 degree outlook combine to create a home that is anything but ordinary. Occupying a generous 878sqm (approx.) allotment of rising land, the home captures a remarkable panorama across the surrounding coastal landscape, with glimpses of the ocean, views towards Cape Schanck and Main Ridge, and sweeping outlooks back towards Rye's front beach and beyond. From the elevated deck, the scenery becomes an ever changing backdrop, inviting you to slow down, take in the fresh coastal air and appreciate the unique beauty of the Mornington Peninsula. Designed with privacy and escape in mind, the home embraces a distinctive architectural style, with exposed timber beams, rich parquetry flooring, expansive windows and an unmistakable retro aesthetic. The upper level brings together generous open plan living, dining and kitchen spaces, centred around a substantial open fireplace that adds warmth and atmosphere. The original kitchen retains its own character, while the extensive windows draw the surrounding treetops and distant views into the heart of the home. Extending across the full span of the upper level, the enormous timber deck is undoubtedly one of the property's defining features. Offering ample room for outdoor dining, entertaining or simply unwinding with a morning coffee, it provides a spectacular vantage point from which to appreciate the property's elevated position and far reaching views. Below, three bedrooms are connected by a generous open walkway, together with a central bathroom, separate laundry and a further small wet area of an additional toilet and shower, providing comfortable accommodation with a practical separation between the living and sleeping zones - be aware however, if you are adverse to stairs this ones not for you!
