5 High Street Moolap

Escape to the country but be within minutes of the city at this idyllic retreat with heated swimming pool.

Set on 1.22 acres (almost 5000sqm), the renovated four-bedroom home with an array of family-friendly features is just five minutes from the CBD, yet from the moment you drive in, it feels like you’re in another world.

Inside and out, everywhere you look there’s greenery and open space.

The stunning entrance area and dining space boast soaring timber cathedral ceilings, a Tuscan rendered feature wall, sliding barn doors and a view to the sparkling pool.

The kitchen, with timber benchtops, soft-close drawers and cupboards, 900mm cooktop and loads of storage space, is bathed in natural light.

The kitchen and dining area are linked to a large formal lounge with gas log fire, a second dining or study area and a generous family room that features a wood heater with a built-in oven.

The main bedroom, with walk-in robe and ensuite, is at the back of the home to provide privacy, while three further bedrooms, all with built-in robes, are accessed off a hall and share a central bathroom.

The property’s magnificent additional outdoor spaces include a stand-alone pergola, a large fish pond with a Japanese-style bridge and resident bullfrogs, fruit trees, an enclosed vegetable garden and large chicken shed.

There’s also large expanses of lawn and garden for children to run free and explore.

And to keep older kids entertained, the huge block has loads of room to create a skate park or BMX track.

As well as a four-car carport at the front of the property, there’s a 12m x 6m open garage tall enough to accommodate boats and caravans, with extra shedding including 8m x 3m and 8m x 6m workshops.

Other features include a large laundry with storage and bench space, double-glazed windows, a 10kW solar power system, water tanks, ceiling fans and new carpet and paint throughout.

The property is on the doorstep of the city, Eastern Beach and the Botanic Gardens, within easy reach of Geelong train station and the Ring Road, and 20 minutes from the beaches of the Bellarine.
