6 Helen Street, Rippleside, Vic 3215

Set in one of Geelong’s most sought-after bayside pockets, this charming single level, Victorian home offers the perfect balance of character and comfort, and is an ideal retreat for professional couples, young families and retirees seeking a serene yet connected lifestyle and wanting independent living without the hassle of local bayside Owners Corporations. 

A wrap-around verandah invites you to relax with a morning coffee or evening wine as you take in the tranquil parkland views and shimmering bay, a mere stones throw away. A secure front yard provides extra space for children to play or pets to roam. Inside, classic features like high ceilings, lead light highlights, and parquetry floors, blend beautifully with modern comforts including ducted heating and split system cooling. The spacious lounge and dining room provides a cosy spot to unwind, or entertain guests, complete with a wood heater and direct access to the verandah, the perfect spot for summer cocktails! The light-filled open-plan living, meals, and kitchen opens through French doors to a low-maintenance courtyard, the ideal setting for relaxed entertaining without the big upkeep. The generous kitchen includes granite benchtops, generous storage, a Bosch dishwasher, and SMEG cooking appliances.

The main bedroom serves as a peaceful sanctuary with its elegant fireplace, walk-in robe, and lux ensuite. Three further rooms offer flexibility, with the front bedroom opening directly onto the verandah for a calming morning breeze, and has large built-in robes, a second room is a great guest room being adjacent to the family bathroom and the third is a beautiful library/office and would also make an ideal children’s playroom. 

A large laundry with an additional shower and toilet adds practicality, especially for those enjoying outdoor hobbies like fishing. Additional features include a security system, coded pedestrian gate, external awnings, garden shed and a remote-controlled gate into tandem carport.

Perfectly positioned, you’re just steps from parklands and sporting grounds, with the bay and waterfront trails only moments away for peaceful strolls.
