South Gippsland
Marvellous Monumental Muddy
Vereker House is located in the world renowned Wilsons Promontory dress circle, and less than 5 minutes to the Wilsons Promontory National Park gates.
Its elevated position takes in the sweeping mountain, ocean and gently rolling green South Gippsland rural views this venerated beauty spot is renowned for.
Purpose built in 1995 as a high end BnB, the home is exceptional in every way, from its monumental post and beam mud brick and adobe construction featuring massive oregan timbers, to the flexible 5 bedroom, 5 bathroom and 3 living area floor plan.
The vision of the owners, to create a large comfortable home and income stream on the exceptional block of land are as valid now as it was back in the 90s.
Reignite the holiday stay potential in this high demand area using the current floor plan, the large living areas and exceptional outlooks, which in addition to allowing a perfect base for holiday makers to explore the many delights of the Prom National Park because of the earthy ambience, also lend themselves to creating a yoga or mediation retreat.
Or optimise the timeless appeal of the high ceilings, adobe and ceder lined rooms to establish the ultimate personal getaway or forever home.
Step into the house from the paved courtyard and the first thing you notice is the warm embrace of the terracotta tiles, high ceilings and sheer size of the main living room, with its enormous central hearth and Lopi wood fire.
Just off the living room sits a practical kitchen with cheerful red bench tops and a adjacent butlers pantry, the source of many a tasty cream tea and home cooked meal.
A combined sunroom and 2nd lounge/ meals sits beyond the central living area overlooking native gardens and the one-of-a-kind views.
On the left side of the home the owners retreat, combines a massive bedroom with plenty of room for lounge and TV, a large walk-in robe/ dressing room and ensuite bathroom.
The right side has a separate TV room, central work space and the 4 cedar lined and Adobe guest or family bedrooms each with their own neat ensuite.
Outside the sweeping newly resurfaced circular drive offers 6-8 carparks for family or guests.
The gardens feature attractive flower and shrub borders and striking native trees framing the views and home to many visiting native birds. A bountiful lemon tree, is perfect for lingering G&Ts on the rear courtyard, overlooking the Prom.
Extensive shedding includes a large concrete floored, powered, insulated workshop and external laundry, with an adjacent garage which has space for 2 large cars.
A concrete floored and insulated garden shed and a separate wood shed.
A large fully installed 7kW/ 240 volts/ 29 amps Able Kruger back -up generator ensures the house always has power even in outages.
A gigantic rainwater tank of approximately 100,000 litres, provides plenty of water for house and garden.
