5 Bedroom Freehold For Sale in Vermont

Description

Positioned in one of Vermont's most tightly held pockets, this is an address that buyers seldom have the opportunity to secure. With ocean and mountain views, a peaceful cul-de-sac setting, and the coastal pathways just a short stroll away, it's easy to understand why homes here are so rarely available. Whether you're accommodating extended family, working from home, generating additional income, or simply looking for a home that adapts to life's changing seasons, 8 Scallop Close presents a level of flexibility rarely found in a single residence. The main living spaces are positioned upstairs, allowing the home to take full advantage of both the ocean views and the mountain backdrop. A generous open-plan lounge and dining area, complete with a wood-burning fireplace, opens effortlessly onto two separate balconies, creating an exceptional space for entertaining. The front balcony captures the ocean views, while the rear balcony overlooks the garden towards the mountains. Both feature built-in braais, allowing each space to offer its own unique outlook and atmosphere. The kitchen adjoins the living area and is complemented by a separate scullery and walk-in pantry, with direct access to the backyard. The upstairs accommodation is both comfortable and private. The main suite features a walk-through dressing area leading to a spacious en-suite bathroom, while the second bedroom also enjoys the convenience of its own en-suite. A guest toilet and wash basin complete this level, and well-positioned storage cupboards along the passage enhance the practicality of the layout. Downstairs, the home reveals one of its greatest strengths. A fully self-contained one-bedroom apartment, complete with its own open-plan living area, kitchen, and en-suite bathroom, creates immediate potential for dual living, guest accommodation, or supplementary rental income. The open-plan living area is generously proportioned and is currently configured to accommodate an additional bed. Completely detached from the main residence, a separate studio suite with its own private entrance and en-suite bathroom provides exceptional versatility, whether as a guest suite, creative studio, consulting room, home office, or independent accommodation. Positioned at the main entrance on this level, an additional room overlooking the front of the home offers further versatility and could easily function as an additional bedroom or a study, depending on your needs. Vehicle accommodation is equally impressive, with a double garage incorporating a dedicated storage room, complemented by a separate single garage. Positioned at the rear of the property and accessed via a long driveway, the parking configuration offers both privacy and practicality. The property's generous grounds provide space seldom found this close to the coastline, with future landscaping possibilities. While Vermont is cherished for its relaxed coastal setting, it's only a short drive from Hermanus CBD, leading schools, healthcare facilities, boutique shopping, golf courses, and the world-renowned Hemel-en-Aarde Valley. It's a location that continues to attract buyers seeking both lifestyle and convenience. It's easy to understand why Hermanus is consistently recognised as one of the world's leading coastal destinations and why so many people choose to call it home.
