Delivering an extraordinary level of space, style and amenity, this custom-designed five-bedroom home ticks all the boxes on the family wish list with its highly considered three-living-area layout and resort-style alfresco entertaining zone with heated inground swimming pool, plus a huge wraparound backyard and basketball practice court.
Recently upscaled and aesthetically enhanced, the character rich single-level home's recycled red brick façade presents plenty of kerb appeal in this low-traffic community-focussed neighbourhood. Set on a deep 1192sqm* (more than a quarter of an acre), there is a double remote-operated garage at the front, off-street parking, plus a secondary side driveway which offers parking or rear access for boats or caravans.
Engineered timber flooring introduces the light-filled home's high-end fit-out, further enhanced with a tranquil Hamptons' inspired colour palette, ornate cornices, plantation shutters, and pure wool carpets. Northerly light floods into the main open plan living and entertaining zone, centred with a gourmet stone kitchen with island bench, step-in pantry, a 900mm Smeg cooker with gas cook top, and a Westinghouse dishwasher. Set behind a broad bay window, the conservatory-like dining area looks out to the expansive alfresco deck with sparkling, salt-chlorinated and solar heated family-sized swimming pool.
The principal bedroom is zoned at the front of the home and incorporates a fitted walk-in robe and shower ensuite, while the front living room is positioned as the perfect parents' retreat. Offering space and adaptability for family flow and functionality, there are an additional four bedrooms each with substantial custom robing, plus a large living/rumpus room with glass sliding door access to the lawned backyard with basketball court and kids' play gym area. Additional highlights include a central family bathroom with built-in tub plus separate powder room, a walk-in linen cupboard, a laundry with built-in retractable clothes airer and external access to side clothesline. Also includes ducted heating and cooling, solar roof top panels, a garden shed, newly installed double-glazed windows, and a 4-camera CCTV security system.
The sought-after address is a short walk from Benton Junior College and Benton's Square Shopping Centre, with parkland, nature reserves and walking/cycling trails nearby. It's only a few minutes' drive to Mount Martha Village, Main Street Mornington, and a variety of beaches.
