About the home
“The Gathering House” is a modern, newly built double-storey family- and pet-friendly home in Cowes, just a short walk from Cowes Beach and a short drive from the supermarkets, restaurants, and cafés of Cowes. With spacious living areas and fantastic entertainment spaces, this impressive home is perfect for families and groups looking to relax and enjoy a memorable Phillip Island getaway. Some of the many features of this lovely home are detailed below:
Indoor Areas
The impressive foyer provides a welcoming entrance to this modern, newly built home, with a stylish staircase leading to the upper level. The ground floor features spacious Living areas, including the front Living area with a sofa bed. The large central Living area (with a 75" Smart TV with full surround sound and a foosball table), featuring a striking coffered ceiling, 2 queen sofa beds and distinctive pillars adding architectural character to the space, provides another comfortable and inviting space to relax and enjoy. The rear open-plan Kitchen/Dining/Living area (with an 85" Smart TV and premium surround sound system) provides a spacious and versatile space where guests can gather, dine and unwind together. The kitchen also features LED lighting under the benches, adding a stylish touch to the space. All three Smart TVs are hardwired to the modem, providing a reliable connection with no lag while watching content. A separate powder room and fully equipped laundry are conveniently located on this level near the garage, with a washing machine and separate clothes dryer.
Upstairs, the Living area creates a comfortable and inviting retreat for relaxing and enjoying downtime (with 75" Smart TV & sound system). The four Bedrooms are positioned around the central hallway alongside the bathroom facilities. Bedroom 1 features a WIR and a spacious Ensuite (with freestanding bath, shower & toilet). Bedrooms 2 & 3 each feature a WIR and their own Ensuite (with shower & toilet), while Bedroom 4 has a WIR. The fourth Bathroom is located directly across from Bedroom 4 (and features a bath and shower), while the Toilet is located separately next to it.
Outdoor Areas
The spacious partially covered outdoor Living area (with BBQ and outdoor entertaining space), directly adjoining the open-plan Living and Dining space, provides a fantastic setting for alfresco dining and entertaining, overlooking the backyard lawn and paved firepit area. The generous outdoor area offers plenty of room for guests to relax, enjoy the fresh air, and make the most of the outdoor setting. Guests can also enjoy the outdoor firepit; firewood is not provided; however, guests can purchase some at the local service station if required.
