Summary:
Spectacular ocean views and an oasis of Australian style awaits at ‘Waterline’ oceanfront luxury retreat. Positioned on a stretch of coastline famed for its towering sandstone cliffs, wide sandy beaches and intense waves from the Southern Ocean, this contemporary coastal home delivers the utmost lifestyle experience. 4 bedrooms, 3 bathrooms (2 spas), 2 living areas, 2 decks, zen yoga room, dedicated work space, water lily dam and vast gardens on 3.5 acres in Jan Juc’s most exclusive street.

The Space:
Located in one of the finest locations on the southern coast of Victoria, ‘Waterline’ is the perfect place from which to explore the beautiful Australian icons of the region, including Bells Beach, Ironbark Basin and the Great Ocean Road. This incredible setting boasts unobstructed, breathtaking oceanfront views from its commanding position, so you can watch the waves rolling into Bells Beach and beyond! One of only few properties of its type, this spacious home offers the most exceptional views and privacy. Nearby access to the Bells Beach Track (Surf Coast Walk) leads to panoramic viewpoints where breathtaking vistas take in views to Victoria’s distant East Coast.

Situated in Jan Juc's most coveted street, you will be tucked away from bustling Torquay in privacy and quietude, yet only a few minutes’ drive to Jan Juc village shops, cafés, beach and playgrounds. The world-famous Bells Beach is under 5mins drive and marks the beginning of Point Addis Marine National Park, a popular spot for surfers. Further along, the spectacular cliffs and ironbark forests edging the coast are part of the Great Otway National Park.

Be inspired by the refined, understated luxury, elegance and character of ‘Waterline’. Exceptional indoor and outdoor living areas create a luxurious retreat that stimulates the senses and draws the outside in. Cook a BBQ and dine on the north or south decks, immersed in the sea breeze and Southern Ocean views. This luxurious sanctuary honours the natural beauty of its surrounds, in a tranquil environment that can be enjoyed in total peace and relaxation.

Soak up the sun and admire the colour palette of Water Lilies on the pond. Lose yourself as you meander through the beautifully landscaped gardens, where mixed plantings are composed of native indigenous species, succulents, roses, and veggie boxes with seasonal produce. A vine-clad arbour at its heart features climbing roses, evoking a sense of romance as the birds chirp in the towering gums above.

Once inside this masterfully-designed home, a double height void reveals both levels of the home. From the blonde timber floors and open tread staircase, to the lush tropical indoor plants and eucalypt-toned Jardan sofa, this property expresses high-end finishes and a soothing palette of materials that draw inspiration from the local area. Sunlight permeates every space; extensive glazing frames glorious views of the landscape, intuitively merging interior-exterior connections and adding to the sensory appeal. The internal lift is designed to ensure the house is suitable for all abilities.

Oversized stone bench tops and hi-spec appliances make the chef’s kitchen more than a place to prepare food, and meals will be enjoyed at the custom dining table. Miele wall oven, gas cooking, dishwasher and a Nespresso coffee pod machine are complemented by a walk-in pantry, where essentials are provided.

Upstairs living is reserved for relaxation by the sea... gaze out to sea or watch the dance of flickering flames in the gas log fire. Hydronic heating and underfloor heating provide total climate comfort throughout in cooler seasons, and air conditioning upstairs provides summer cooling.

Head downstairs to the theatre room for movies on the big screen (Smart TV - log in with your own Netflix/streaming account details). The 'zen room' harnesses views of the ocean and water lily pond. It is the perfect place to clear the mind, recharge and refresh. Designed so you can curate your own wellness experience, the room is equipped with yoga mats, lounges, tropical plants and textural furnishings, so you can enjoy some quiet meditation, stretching, Pilates, yoga or tai chi.

Four bedrooms sleep up to 10 guests in comfort, all with oceanfront views so you can check the surf from bed!
