Perfectly positioned within the tightly held Summerfields Estate, this distinctive four-bedroom Federation-style residence delivers timeless character, generous proportions and an unmistakable sense of arrival on a substantial court allotment. Instantly recognisable by its iconic turret roofline and copper rooster weathervane, the home is wrapped in a return verandah of cast iron lacework and timber fretwork, set behind classic red brickwork and established cottage gardens.
Beyond the original leadlight entry, the home unfolds across approximately 202m² (approx.) of beautifully proportioned single-level living, showcasing soaring ceilings, ornate ceiling roses, deep cornices, brass push-button switches and a stunning mahogany mantelpiece with cast iron insert in the formal lounge. A renovated stone kitchen with quality stainless appliances, gas cooking and dishwasher sits at the heart of the home, flowing seamlessly to an octagonal breakfast nook framed by garden windows. A formal dining room, dedicated family room and separate living zone offer exceptional flexibility for growing families, while the master suite is privately positioned with walk-in robe and ensuite, accompanied by three further generous bedrooms, a central bathroom with double vanity and a separate WC.
Completing the residence is ducted heating, evaporative cooling, a double auto garage with internal access and beautifully established gardens with sweeping lawns, mature hedging and climbing roses that wrap the home in privacy. Positioned within walking distance to Bentons Square Shopping Centre, Bentons Junior College, quality local schools and only moments from Main Street Mornington, the racecourse and the bay, this is a rare opportunity to secure a home of true character and craftsmanship in one of Mornington's most prestigious estates.
