21 Melville Avenue Newtown

Enjoy the high life with a resort lifestyle and endless panoramic views in this riverside designer residence.

The split-level home offers multiple living areas and spectacular entertaining plus the serenity of a private guest house and parents’ sanctuary with outdoor spa bath access.

Less than 500m from the Barwon River and walking distance to The Geelong College and St Joseph’s College, this is a property readymade for a family on the go.

From the moment you step into the home via an elevated walkway, be prepared for state-of-the-art living.

The entry level has a spacious open-plan lounge, dining and kitchen zone as its focal point, enjoying sweeping views from a wall of windows, bi-fold doors and adjoining balcony.

The designer kitchen boasts wide stone benchtops, high-end European appliances, including 900mm oven and five-burner gas cooktop, breakfast bar and abundant storage in soft-close cupboards and drawers.

It conveniently overlooks the large family dining and living space, bathed in natural light and with standout gas fireplace and built-in cabinetry.

For downtime, escape to the home office or nearby home theatre, set up to host movie nights worthy of any cinema.

Downstairs is a dedicated bedroom zone, where the luxe master suite enjoys its own level with a dual-entry walk-in robe and dressing room, ensuite with soaker tub and frameless walk-in shower, plus private deck access via bifold doors to the spa canopy.

In a separate wing are two further bedrooms with built-in robes, private decks, garden views and a shared central bathroom.

Step out from the main bedroom or living area down to the entertainment pavilion, a fully enclosed dining area and kitchen with six-jet Beefmaster barbecue, rangehood, drinks fridges, sink and wall of storage, ideal for get-togethers all year round.

When the weather is warm, swing open bi-fold doors on two sides to bring the outdoors in.

Below is a self-contained bedroom and ensuite with space for a sofa and desk, ideal for guests, as a teen retreat or to work from home.

Other highlights include laundry with its own outdoor drying deck, powder room, split-system units, double garage with direct entry to the house, security system and terraced gardens.

As well as being in the heart of Newtown’s prized private school zone, a wealth of shopping and dining options await on Shannon Ave and Pakington St.

On weekends, row on the Barwon River, tee off at Queens Park Golf Course and spot wildlife at Balyang Sanctuary.

And it’s all a 10-minute drive from Geelong train station, the Ring Road, waterfront and CBD.
