Manta Ray One - Skenes Creek

Manta Ray One is a landmark property offering breathtaking beach views and direct beach access. Perfectly positioned across the road from the beach, this property lets you enjoy your morning coffee while taking in the surf.
The Manta Ray One beach house seamlessly integrates with its seaside surroundings. Its unique, subtle stingray-inspired design harmonizes with the landscape, overlooking Skenes Creek Beach and the emerald hills of Apollo Bay.
Spanning two levels, this home boasts a cutting-edge open plan design. The first floor's living area captures a dynamic 180-degree view of the sea, rolling hills, and the scenic Great Ocean Road leading to Apollo Bay. The open plan space features an angled glass atrium, bathing in sunlight as you gaze out at the waves and beach. Inside, you'll find a cozy lounge with a wood fire, leather couches, and a large TV, alongside a fully equipped kitchen and dining area.
The lofty ceilings and polished floors enhance the natural light and complement the home's design. Two decks offer outdoor relaxation, one facing the ocean and another on the northern side with a BBQ and outdoor furniture.
On the ground level, you'll find three bedrooms and two bathrooms, including an ensuite in the master bedroom. Each bedroom provides a unique view through full-length windows, with two bedrooms featuring sliding doors leading to private decks and the native garden. This level also includes a fully equipped laundry.
Manta Ray One is pet-friendly, with a fully fenced yard and a kennel. The fenced courtyard offers ample space for surfboards, bodyboards, and beach gear, plus an outdoor shower to rinse off sandy feet.
Skenes Creek Beach is ideal for families, surfing, fishing, beachcombing, or a leisurely walk. At low tide, you can stroll along the beach from Skenes Creek to Apollo Bay. The property includes off-street parking with space for a boat or trailer.
