1 Brook St, Gerringong

It’s no secret that the coastal town of Gerringong is a desirable place to bring up a family – with natural beauty at every turn, a laid-back holiday vibe and enough modern conveniences to keep everyone happy.

But where to live? And more importantly, where to find a space versatile enough for a growing family? The answer to both questions is here – at no.1 Brook Street.

Sitting high on a corner block, this renovated 4-bedroom home presents a lush exterior – from the privacy of the Murraya border hedges to the climbing fig that hugs the front facade in a luscious green.

Once inside the elevated entrance, you’ll get a sense for the split-level inner workings of this residence. The main open-plan living area runs the length of the home, with solid timber floors underfoot. Year-round comfort is assured with air-conditioning, ceiling fan and slow combustion wood-burner, while twin doors lead you out to the covered wraparound verandah that faces west across to the reserve and wetlands – and incredible sunsets!

Back inside, the large dining space and modern kitchen provides a warm heart to this home, with timber benchtops, quality appliances and slate splashback. An extra butler’s pantry has also been integrated alongside the laundry, with direct access out to a sunny north-facing sitting area – fringed by jasmine and providing easy access to the private backyard.

Shaded by established trees, this yard includes a raised vegetable garden, chicken coop, lawn, and a large entertaining pavilion with built-in BBQ, sink, bench, and power. It’s the ideal spot to gather with family and friends in any season!

Ready for a rest? All four bedrooms include carpet, ceiling fans and built-in wardrobes, with two facing the backyard (one including direct sliding door access), alongside the main bathroom. The other two bedrooms occupy the top level, including the master, which adds air-con, walk-in robe and luxe ensuite with double rain showers to the list.

The cherry on top? Well, it’s on the bottom actually – a huge internal access four-car garage, possible space for a home gym, workshop, or rumpus. There’s also enough under-house and roof storage to suit even the busiest growing family!

With a location that sees your local microbrewery/café just two minutes’ walk away and the train station and village shops also nearby, you really do have the “no.1” spot. And that’s without all the other beaches, pools and other perks Gerringong is known for.
