On entering this unique property, one immediately receives an impression of stepping into another era. A mixture of Old England, Tuscany and French Provincial elements have been combined on an Australian backdrop, using texture, colour, design, landscaping and the whole effect is most pleasing to the senses.
Currently used as a permanent residence, there is potential to expand to various enterprises within the tourism industry. This would only be limited by your imagination.
The approximately 12.5 acres which surround the house screen it from the main road and flow around it incorporating landscaped gardens, formal and informal, sweeping down past the swimming pool, tennis court, orchard and lake, to the foreshore reserve, which is accessed with it’s own private gate, leading down to the beach. Facing over Westernport Bay, the scenery is magnificent, not to mention the awe inspiring sunsets.
The residence was designed by the renowned mudbrick architect, John Pizzey, and offers generously proportioned rooms, with many interesting and unusual features.
The accommodation includes: 3 bedrooms, 2 bathrooms plus a powder room, formal lounge with open fireplace, sitting room, theatre room, large deck, stylish kitchen with separate scullery, large study, huge games room, all set over 2 connecting dwellings. The decor is rich and vibrant and the mudbrick offers superb insulation properties, keeping the house cool in the summer and warm in winter.
