Overview

Coastal Serenity with Panoramic Views

Occupying an elevated position on a substantial allotment of 2930 m2 approximately, and immersed in the natural beauty of its surroundings, this remarkable coastal retreat enjoys panoramic views across a rolling green landscape and the dunes to Cape Schanck and its iconic lighthouse, with glimpses of Bass Strait completing the breathtaking outlook. Framed by native Moonah trees and accompanied by the distant sound of crashing waves, the property offers an exceptional sense of peace and seclusion. Positioned at the end of a quiet court and architect designed by Brian Earles, the residence embraces a timeless coastal aesthetic, blending natural materials, refined finishes and thoughtful design across a spacious split-level floorplan. Rich Blackbutt timber flooring, soaring timber-lined ceilings and extensive glazing create warm, light-filled interiors with a sense of quiet luxury and calm that remain connected to the ever-changing landscape beyond. The focal point of the home is the generous living and dining zone featuring a striking Cheminees Philippe fireplace, while expansive picture windows capture the spectacular coastal backdrop. Sliding doors open to a series of decks, creating inviting outdoor spaces for entertaining, relaxing and appreciating the uninterrupted views. The kitchen has been crafted with both style and practicality in mind, featuring a well-appointed butler's pantry and a suite of quality European integrated appliances, including a stunning British made Falcon 900mm range. Thoughtfully zoned for privacy and comfort, the home offers three accommodating bedrooms, each capturing peaceful treed outlooks that reinforce the connection to the natural surroundings. Privately positioned, the main bedroom forms a tranquil retreat complete with a beautifully appointed ensuite. Reflecting the home's sophisticated coastal aesthetic, the central family bathroom with luxury finishes and bespoke elements such as the fabulous freestanding stone bath offer an indulgent escape. Nestled amongst green garden surrounds at the rear of the property, a fully self-contained studio which can be accessed separately via Avon Road provides versatile accommodation for guests, extended family or independent living. Beyond, a large expanse of level lawn offers abundant space for recreation and presents an ideal opportunity for a future swimming pool. This exceptional property is enhanced by zoned ducted heating and cooling, extensive off-street parking with dual street access, a cubby house, in-ground trampoline, chicken coop, productive vegetable gardens, and bore water irrigation. A distinctive entrance gate incorporating reclaimed Portsea Pier timbers adds further character and charm. A short walk to the ocean reserve and nearby surf breaks, and moments from The Dunes Golf Links, Peninsula Hot Springs, wineries and Rye's foreshore cafes, this outstanding property delivers a rare opportunity to secure a private coastal haven equally suited to permanent living or an idyllic holiday escape with optional income potential.
