There are family homes, and then there are estates properties that don't just accommodate a lifestyle but define one. Set across 3,000* square metres in Mount Martha's exclusive Balcombe Estate, with elevated Bay and city skyline views from multiple aspects, this magnificent neo-Georgian mansion (480sqm approx.) is a rare statement of scale, craftsmanship and grandeur, framed by established Mediterranean-inspired botanical gardens.
Behind high walls and automated gates, a long driveway sweeps past formal hedging and rose gardens dressed with classical urns, fountains and statuary the first sign that this property was built to impress. Step inside and the scale speaks for itself: towering ceilings, neoclassical columns, and a grand bifurcated staircase set the tone for interiors flooded with natural light. Downstairs unfolds across formal and informal living and dining zones, a home office (or fifth bedroom), a library and anteroom, all abundantly glazed with access to wraparound garden terraces. At the heart of it all, the central kitchen gleams in lustrous black granite, equipped for serious entertaining with a trio of multi-function ovens, a 900mm induction cooktop and double-drawer dishwasher.
Upstairs, the grandeur only builds. A sunset-viewing wraparound balcony and private deck adjoin the palatial master suite, complete with a marble spa ensuite and a boutique-sized walk-in dressing room. A second large living room, three fitted double bedrooms and a luxuriously appointed family bathroom complete this level space enough for every generation of family life.
An outdoor world built for entertaining, at any scale.
The granite-tiled alfresco terrace, framed by tropical landscaping and a blue-water backdrop, connects directly to the self-cleaning, solar-heated pool and overlooks a full-sized, floodlit tennis court. Beyond it, a large enclosed lawn awaits petanque, backyard cricket, or simply room to run.
Considered further details include a luxe powder room, Daikin reverse cycle heating and cooling, electric panel heating, monitored CCTV, security lighting, ducted vacuum, twin 32,000 litre rainwater tanks, an oversized double garage with internal access, a separate enclosed double carport, and ample off-street parking.
A prized address, walking distance to it all.
From this elevated position within Balcombe Estate, it's an easy walk down to South Beach and Mount Martha Village, with its supermarket, boutiques, cafes, restaurants and wellness services. The Peninsula's leading private schools Balcombe Grammar, Peninsula Grammar and Toorak College are just a short drive away, with a bus stop right out the front.
This is more than a home. It's a legacy address.
