2/761-763 Esplanade, Mornington is a 2 bedroom, 1 bathroom Unit with 1 parking spaces and was built in 1940. The property has a land size of 2220m2.
Gracefully positioned on the ground floor of the landmark Caversham Court, this distinguished two-bedroom residence captures the essence of refined coastal living. Designed in 1948 by renowned architect C.G. MacKennal, it blends enduring Art Deco character with a prized Esplanade address-just steps from Fisherman's Beach and Mornington's vibrant village.
A showcase of artisanal detail, the home celebrates its era with sculpted cornices, delicate ceiling roses, and ornate fittings-speaking to a level of craftsmanship seldom seen today. Its calming bay outlook reinforces a sense of quiet permanence, anchored in both history and place.
As day fades, rose-gold light spills across polished timber floors, casting a warm, ephemeral glow through the open-plan living and dining area. Boats glide silently across the bay, their silhouettes etched against the horizon, while the gentle flicker of the gas log fire and soft glow of Deco lighting set the tone for still evenings and thoughtful moments.
The kitchen offers a harmonious blend of vintage charm and practical design, appointed with stainless steel appliances, generous storage, and a layout that encourages casual dining and conversation.
The main bedroom is a serene retreat-bathed in muted evening light, it offers a sense of stillness and calm. In contrast, the second bedroom embraces the morning sun, lending itself to creative pursuits, quiet work, or relaxed guest accommodation.
Rich in Deco detail, the central bathroom features terrazzo floors, pastel tones, and preserved period fixtures. Paired with a separate WC, it maintains both elegance and privacy.
Framed by lush communal gardens, this rare offering is a timeless bayside treasure-gracefully preserved and perfectly placed to enjoy the best of Mornington's coastal charm.
