Tucked privately away at the end of a long driveway and surrounded by approximately eight acres of beautiful established grounds, 98 Jones Road is the kind of property that immediately feels special.
A much-loved family home where children have grown, grandchildren have played and countless memories have been made, this is a property with genuine warmth, character and soul. Now ready for its next chapter, it presents an increasingly rare opportunity to secure substantial acreage in Somerville and create a lifestyle entirely your own.
The home itself is wonderfully spacious, offering four generous bedrooms, three bathrooms and two separate living areas, with soaring timber-lined ceilings and exposed beams creating a striking sense of warmth and character throughout. An open fireplace and Coonara wood heater add to the home's country charm, providing beautiful spaces to gather as a family, particularly through the cooler months.
At the heart of the home is an exceptionally generous kitchen, connecting effortlessly with the dining and living spaces and reflecting a home that has always been centred around family life. Large windows and extensive glazing draw the surrounding greenery inside, with peaceful outlooks across the established gardens, pool and acreage.
The accommodation provides plenty of flexibility for families of all ages, while the home's largely original condition has been lovingly maintained over the years. There is wonderful scope for its next owners to update and personalise in their own time, while retaining the architectural character and warmth that makes the home so unique.
Step outside and the true scale of the lifestyle begins to unfold. A huge inground swimming pool provides the perfect setting for long summer days with family and friends, while beyond the home, approximately eight acres open out into expansive paddocks ideally suited to horses and a variety of country pursuits. Mature trees and established gardens create a beautiful sense of privacy, and with the home positioned well back from the road, there is an undeniable feeling of peace and seclusion from the moment you arrive.
Adding further practicality is a substantial shed and garage incorporating workshop space, providing plenty of room for vehicles, equipment, hobbies or projects – an invaluable addition to acreage living.
Despite its wonderfully private setting, this is acreage without the isolation. Somerville and Tyabb villages, local schools, sporting facilities and everyday amenities are all within easy reach, while the broader Mornington Peninsula is yours to enjoy.
Some homes are simply places to live. Others become part of a family's story.
After years filled with children, grandchildren, celebrations and everyday moments, 98 Jones Road is ready for another family to make it theirs. Horses in the paddocks, summers around the pool, winter nights beside the fire and the freedom of approximately eight acres to call your own – this is a property offering the space for a whole new generation of memories.
A rare acreage opportunity with heart, history and an exciting future.
