Tucked into an elevated and tightly held pocket of Belmont, this remarkable mid-century home stands as one of the last remaining examples of original 1960s architecture in Geelong. Featured in The Design Files and Spaces Magazine, the home captures the essence of the era with timeless design and craftsmanship, making it an unmissable opportunity for lovers of architectural character.
Constructed from solid brick and positioned to take full advantage of its north-facing orientation, the home is filled with natural light and warmth. A striking glass façade enhances the living space, connecting the indoors with the sunny front terrace. From the moment you step inside, you’re greeted by hardwood timber panelled feature walls, exposed timber rafters, and a stunning array of original ceiling and wall light fittings that preserve the home's authentic charm.
The kitchen has been tastefully updated with a quality Miele dishwasher and a new Westinghouse oven, blending seamlessly with the home’s original detailing. The bathroom remains delightfully untouched, a charming nod to the past that adds to the home's nostalgic appeal.
Comfort is well catered for with both gas central heating and split system heating and cooling. The floor plan offers generous proportions, high ceilings, and built-in timber wardrobes in each bedroom, reflecting thoughtful design and a strong connection to natural materials.
Outdoor spaces are equally captivating. Crazy paving adds a playful touch to the west-facing side terrace, while the north-facing front terrace offers a tranquil spot to relax. The front garden has been thoughtfully planted with native flora, while the backyard is an oasis of fruit trees and flowering plants — a testament to years of care and cultivation.
Practicality is also covered, with a single lock-up garage and an additional double carport. The location is second to none — just a short walk to Belmont High School, Highton Village, the Barwon River, bike tracks, and playgrounds. You’ll also enjoy quick access to Deakin University, local parks, and the freeway, placing Melbourne and the Surf Coast within easy reach.
This is more than just a home — it’s a rare piece of Geelong’s architectural heritage, ready for its next custodian to love and enjoy.
