One of the great pleasures of owning a coastal home is being able to arrive, leave the car behind and allow everyone to enjoy the freedom that comes with being near the beach. Set on a level allotment of approximately 1000sqm, 16 Yarringa Road offers exactly that, with excellent walking access via the nearby underpass to the Fairhaven Surf Club and the magnificent 6km long Fairhaven Beach.
For families, this safe connection to the beach is particularly valuable. There is no need to cross the Great Ocean Road, allowing younger family members increasing independence as they grow, while the patrolled beach during the warmer months provides additional peace of mind. At night, easily walking home from the social hub of the surf club is an added bonus. Whether it is an early morning surf, an afternoon swim or simply wandering down to the beach, it can all become an effortless part of everyday life.
The residence itself has been designed around relaxed coastal living. Upstairs, excellent natural light creates a wonderfully bright and airy atmosphere throughout the open plan living, dining and kitchen area. A large deck extends the living outdoors and provides plenty of room to entertain, relax in the sunshine or to simply enjoy the peaceful native outlook.
A second generous living area downstairs gives families the separation that becomes increasingly valuable when children bring friends home or when guests come to stay. With three bedrooms across the two levels, there is a genuine sense that everyone can find their own space while still coming together in the main living areas.
The large, level allotment is another important advantage. Surrounded by established native vegetation, there is a feeling of connection with the natural environment without the steep terrain often associated with coastal properties. It makes the property easy to enjoy for children, adults and older family members alike.
Whether used as a permanent home or a place where generations of family gather for weekends and holidays, 16 Yarringa Road offers something increasingly difficult to find in Fairhaven: space, privacy, excellent family separation and the freedom to walk safely to one of the Great Ocean Road's most beautiful beaches.
