Harnessing the relaxed ambience of beachside Mt Martha coupled with an enchanting history dating back the 1920s, this captivating and beautifully renovated home built from bricks made on the property strikes a wonderful accord with its coastal setting.
Set on almost three-quarters of an acre and just a few hundred metres from the beach and the estuary boardwalk, take a step back in time to a genteel era of afternoon tea parties and guests arriving from the city for the summer holidays amid rambling seaside gardens.
Built and used as a holiday home for more than 80 years, recent sympathetic renovations have created a wonderful family residence with French provincial influences offering new bathrooms and a fantastic light-filled kitchen and meals area opening to a veranda and alfresco deck beneath shady native trees.
Two living areas include a large reception room with exposed truss ceilings and an open fireplace, as well as a more intimate family, casement windows and sliding doors to the veranda.
Strapped ceilings, timber floors, plate rails and even pull-cord light switches continue the character, along with modern conveniences like hydronic heating and a master bedroom with ensuite, walk-in robe and open fireplace.
Another of the bedrooms has an open fire while the farmhouse-style kitchen beneath a brilliant atrium skylight has a Falcon gas range and a wood-fired oven set into the original hearth, a large island bench, walk-in pantry, a study area and powder room. There is also a separate bungalow or home office, a double carport, single carport and electric front gate.
