Merricks North VIC 3926

In the heart of beautiful Merricks North,
is a magnificent country estate luxuriating on 20 acres (approx.) with rolling rural panoramic views to Westernport and Phillip Island. Expertly designed to partner picturesque single-level four bedroom, two bathroom country living with comprehensive facilities for livestock and horses, Stonnington is a place of beauty, prestige, functionality and utter exclusivity.

Verdant gardens of mature trees, established plantings, fragrant roses and gorgeous walled formal garden hideaways surround the home with meandering scent filled pathways leading you to a swimming pool, kitchen garden, tennis court and beyond to a scenic ornamental lake.

Positioned to capture the views at every turn, the home is cradled within deep country verandahs and entertaining decks; while the predominantly open-plan layout creates a feeling of effortless flowing space conducive to entertaining on a grand scale. Peaked ceilings in the principal living and dining rooms add a lofty airiness; while banks of soaring glass frame the view in its entirety. Bespoke pendant lights add a sparkle of glamour complemented by stylish and easy-care cork flooring.

At the homes heart is a country kitchen with Ilve freestanding stove and striking black tiling that is dramatically mirrored in the floor-to-ceiling fireplace surround in the intimate sitting room; while a billiards room is large enough to accommodate a championship size table.

The main bedroom suite is tucked away in its own private quarters with French doors opening to a tranquil verandah, walk-in robe and contemporary ensuite. Three further fitted bedrooms reside at the opposite end of the house alongside a full main bathroom and laundry.

The grounds are faultlessly appointed with extensive post and rail paddocks with fencing, stock yards, beautiful stable block with tack room and hay store, dam, extensive water storage, garaging for two cars,
elegant return driveway with guest parking.

With Merricks North being only one hour from Melbourne and in immediate proximity to wineries, restaurants, golf courses, surf and bay beaches, shopping villages and schools, Stonnington is easily accessible as a weekend escape and conveniently located.
