A brilliantly orchestrated home combining architectural interest, modern luxury, sustainable living and a golden mile address, this stunning family oasis designed by noted architects McGlashan Everist and extensively renovated and extended by Jackson Clements Burrows and Ten23 is located just moments from Davey’s Bay beach and yacht club.
At the end of a leafy no through country lane and over a picturesque stone bridge, the superb two third acre (approx) property embraces nature and captures the true essence of relaxed living in one of Mt Eliza’s most tightly held and coveted neighbourhoods.
Set behind remote security gates, the facade belies the true extent of the home where a modern extension in keeping with the architect’s original vision has added a brilliant master suite as well as a home office or fantastic teenage retreat below, while in the original section a family room with a roaring open fireplace beneath a soaring ceiling and a wall of windows overlooks a sparkling gas and solar heated horizon edge pool.
Maximizing natural light and blending indoor and outdoor living, the unique design allows for cross flow ventilation to keep things cool in summer and warm in winter.
There is also a third living area or sixth bedroom with a modern ensuite bathroom, as well as a dining area beside the stone topped galley kitchen that spills out to a stone paved terrace with steps down to an expanse of lawn.
A mezzanine level above the main living area could be used as a study or additional bedroom accommodation and also offers bay glimpses.
Within walking distance of prestigious Toorak College, a short drive or bus ride to The Peninsula School and Monash University and other prestigious institutions. Other features include a mod grass sports area and cubby house for children, ducted heating, air conditioning and in floor heating zoned to different areas of the home, fully landscaped gardens including fruit trees and vegetable beds with fully automated sprinkler and grey water systems, an infrared detox box sauna, water filtration and sterilization system and a double carport with several storage rooms.
Just 45 minutes (approx) from inner Melbourne and minutes from Mt Eliza’s prestigious Village and pristine beaches, this is a true lifestyle living for the entire family.
