The Dreamery - Skenes Creek

Nestled in the charming surf town of Skenes Creek, this four-level pet-friendly home offers spectacular ocean views and is just a leisurely 5-minute stroll from the beach. Ideal for families and friends, it provides ample space and relaxed comfort, making it the perfect retreat.
Access the beach easily by walking along Motts Lane until you reach the car park, then take the steps directly onto the sand.
The lounge features a magnificent stone open fireplace with panoramic views stretching towards Apollo Bay. Enjoy the changing skies and ocean from the expansive 8-seater lounge, whether it's rainy, windy, or sunny.
Entertainment is abundant with Blu-ray systems in both the lounge and the rumpus/second living area, an extensive Blu-ray and DVD library, several streaming services, Foxtel, and a PlayStation 3. There's also a well-stocked library with cookbooks and board games for your enjoyment.
For those who can work remotely, the home offers NBN internet and a dedicated work-from-home area in the lounge room.
The enormous deck boasts views of Skenes Creek beach, a glass balcony, and outdoor seating for ten. The north-facing part of the deck is a sunny haven where you can watch the waves and be joined by local birds, including fairy wrens, willie wagtails, and occasionally a magnificent king parrot.
The spacious kitchen is a cook's delight, featuring a dishwasher, ample baking dishes, and a slow cooker. The large dining table seats ten, making it ideal for family meals and gatherings.
The main bedroom, located on the top level, features a king bed with stunning ocean views, allowing you to fall asleep to the sound of the waves and wake up to the sunrise. The second bedroom offers a queen bed, and the third bedroom accommodates up to four guests with a queen bed and king single bunks. All beds are recently upgraded Koala beds and mattresses.
The bathroom includes a walk-in shower with a handrail, a heated tiled floor, and a massive rain shower head. A new powder room with a handrail has also been added. Outside, an outdoor hot shower is available for rinsing off sand and surfboards. Additionally, the property features a convenient Level 2 EV Charger for electric vehicles.
