Ideally nestled amongst the moonah and ti-trees at the top end of this exclusive area and pristine Mornington Peninsula National Park and ocean beaches. With just a 2 minute walk through the dunes to the surf beach, and totally surrounded by golf courses and wineries, minutes to peninsula Springs and 10 minutes to all of Rye’s amenities. Upstairs the open plan master bedroom and parents retreat leads to a semi enclosed deck with intimate artists studio at one end. Adjacent to this bedroom is a large bathroom, corner shower, triangular bath and toilet, all offering expansive views from Cape Schanck to Arthur’s Seat.

The expansive all round alfresco deck provides an ‘a la Tuscany’ grape producing vine covered BBQ area and there is also a ‘boules’ strip for plenty of easy entertaining. Alongside the double carport is a substantial brick lock-up “man cave” workshop which would suit the resident handy man, potter, and/or artist. The large environmentally friendly, sustainable garden, with established fruit trees and vegetable ‘whitehouse’ are fed by rainwater tanks. Solar panels x 9 to reduce power costs. Down from the deck there are fishponds and many ‘secret garden’ spaces for those intimate peaceful times. Awaken to the sounds of the surf and the prolific bird songs, the local cows or join the golfers practically in your own back yard. How much closer to paradise do you need to be!!!
