Here is a rare and exciting opportunity to purchase one of only three very unique properties on over half an acre situated at the gateway of the Mornington Peninsula! With amazing space, room and exposure for a family, tradesman or home business (STCA) that is full of character, charm and history with a story to tell. The history of this original railway cottage dates back to the early 1900s and has been restored and remodelled with much love over many years to the beautiful unique outstanding home that it is today. With invaluable exposure and location while the family enjoy the open spaces and outlook over the paddocks with the lovely sunrises and sunsets. The rough sawn live edge cypress adorns the entire exterior creating an image of bygone era welcoming guests onto the lovely deck and into the entrance of this unique home featuring the original 10 1/2 foot high ceilings and the crackling fire place before ushering them into the expansive living and dining areas with exposed beam ceilings warmed by the wood fire with a built in bar. The gourmet chef's custom Blackwood kitchen with Brazilian granite bench Tops enjoys high end appliances and fittings including a stainless 900mm cooker and DW. The living areas spill out onto the lovely exposed aggregate that leads us to the most luxurious patio alfresco area with a tranquil water feature and beautiful gardens complete with high pitched roof and tropical ceiling fans, bubbling 7 seater spa (optional), and an extra WC. There are three bedrooms with BIRs, bathroom with spa bath, heating and cooling, automated lock up carport, high security fencing, privacy gates and automated front gates with keypad remote entry, and the most impressive American style barn with so much space and yet another lovely wood fire, built in work benches, shelving and room for a gym, multiple boats, cars, caravan, truck etc with automated doors and drive through access to the rear of the property and the built in wash bay, this is the ultimate man cave. The home is also designed with a roofline high enough to allow for the addition within, of a complete parents retreat/bedroom, ensuite and BIRs if required (STCA). The surrounding landscaped gardens are stunning with a lovely mix of tropical, native and North American trees including an amazing majestic oak awaiting to be climbed or hung a swing from. This is a labour of love that is reflected in the ambience of this splendid residence with a story to tell.
