Bancroft Haven nestled above the yacht club marina boasts panoramic views across Bancroft Bay. Centrally located in the township of Metung, Bancroft Haven is an ideal location to base yourself for any season of the year to soak up the warmer months or take a break from the bustle of the cooler winter climate. From the moment you pull into the driveway, time stands still as you nestle into our sanctuary, escaping the animation of life. Our home provides the privacy that you would expect when enjoying some downtime, whilst offering sweeping views towards the eastern end of the world-renowned Gippsland Lakes. Bancroft Haven is full of character aimed at helping you soak up the relaxing atmosphere and charm that Metung has to offer. The vaulted ceilings in the lounge and Huon pine paneling provide a warming charm throughout any time of the year. The spacious living and multiple entertaining areas allow for separate retreats across the house so that your whole family can engage in a differing style of relaxation and comfort. The lounge area is adorned with a floor-to-ceiling sandstone feature and centralised doors opening on the deck spaces to the north and south. This room also has a fan-forced wood heater (BYO Wood), furnishing a luring warmth during the winter months, and accompanied by a reverse cycle split system to help negate the summer heat. Modern appliances, large entertainment units, WIFI, and a host of other features are designed to bring the best of what you have at home on holidays. The home comprises four bedrooms. The main bedroom has a king bed and direct access to the southern deck through an external door. It has a generous walk-in robe and a sizeable ensuite.
