Unwind in Coastal Elegance at Riverside Retreat

Summary:
Welcome to your serene Riverside Retreat. Nestled in the heart of Torquay, just a whisper away from the ocean's edge, this stunning contemporary sanctuary offers an unparalleled holiday experience. Indulge in comfort and style with thoughtful amenities and stunning design elements that pair modern luxury with tranquil coastal living. Centrally located 350m to Fisherman’s Beach, it’s designed to create unforgettable memories with an outdoor shower, hot tub, lounge, and BBQ on the sheltered deck.

The Space:
Welcome to a coastal retreat where modern luxury meets serene beachside living. Riverside Retreat is an exquisite Torquay residence, crafted with an architect's eye for light and space, boasting four generously sized bedrooms, two elegant living areas, and a gourmet kitchen designed for culinary artists.

Situated in a sought-after locale, your Torquay adventure awaits. You're just minutes from the vibrant heart of Torquay, pristine beaches, and an array of local attractions. Take a leisurely stroll to Fisho’s Beach or explore the natural beauty of Deep Creek Reserve. Whether seeking a peaceful retreat, coastal adventure, or a luxurious haven, this Riverside sanctuary is poised to deliver an unforgettable escape. Secure your spot at this prime Torquay residence and prepare for a stay filled with luxury, comfort, and the call of the ocean.

Enter the sun-soaked open-plan living area, where high ceilings and expansive windows merge the outdoors with the interior's warm and inviting ambience. The gas log fire adds a warm glow to chilly nights, providing a cosy place to snuggle up on the couch and watch a movie.

The living and dining space extends out to an expansive deck, complete with a hot tub, outdoor kitchen and comfortable seating for alfresco dining or simply enjoying lazy afternoons amid the garden's tranquility. Embraced by a meticulously landscaped, fully fenced yard with synthetic turf, outdoor living is prioritised. The garden gate leads directly onto the Deep Creek Reserve walking trail, where a short walk will reveal a children’s playground, tennis courts and onward to Fisherman’s Beach.

The heart of this home is undoubtedly the kitchen and dining area, featuring a huge island bench and bar stools, high-end appliances, a walk-in pantry, and a DeLonghi coffee pod machine. The sprawling large dining table is all set for festive meals and memorable gatherings. A home office, guest powder room and laundry also offer convenience to the ground floor.

Smart TVs* in both living areas ensure entertainment is just a click away, and the home's climate is managed year-round with ducted heating and split-system air conditioning (every bedroom also has A/C).

The master suite is a haven of tranquility, offering a plush King bed, walk-in closet, and an ensuite bathroom with a statement freestanding bathtub overlooking a private garden — your personal spa retreat for ultimate relaxation. Up the contemporary staircase, the secluded second floor reveals three tastefully decorated bedrooms, each a peaceful sanctuary adorned with quality linens and calming vistas.

All four bedrooms are beautifully appointed with white hotel quality sheets and towels (BYO beach/spa towels). They all have split-system air conditioning units and ceiling fans. The central family bathroom upstairs has a walk-in shower, vanity and separate toilet.
