As Seen On Postcards 27th July 2014 Adjoins National Coastal Park and 16th Beach Amongst 1.6 acres of native coastal landscape and rolling dunes, adjacent to the National Park and with direct access to the very private No.16 beach, is one of the Mornington Peninsula's finest architecturally designed retreats. Built and designed by award winning master builder and architect, as their own luxury home, with the striking design of curves and distinct angling of the two wings, the environment and the aesthetic of the home perfectly complement each other. This is an irreplaceable luxury home of over 45 squares. Magnificent Chinese front doors introduce a flowing hallway that leads one through open, airy living spaces. The various living zones are punctuated by stained American oak joinery delineating dining/kitchen/family rooms. Beautiful stained American Oak units rise at either end of the textured concrete benches and marvellous preparation area in the kitchen to urbanely bookend a fine working room. A concrete rendered open fireplace with elevated hearth divides carpeted areas of living room and library. None of the dividing joinery elements meet perpendicular walls resulting in an effortless flow throughout the home, also providing a constant array of vistas to spaces within, as well as views to the outside ever-changing landscape, not only from the living areas but little window seats in bedrooms and great deep bath tubs. Materials are elemental and brawny: a rough-hewn concrete render on the fireplace, exposed steel beams delineating spaces, timber floors giving way to polished concrete - this is an Australian coastal home not only fit for the purpose, but elegantly so. A dramatically dark, solar heated 20M lap pool, viewed through floor height slot windows in the sleeping wing provides a tranquil affect as well as a wonderful display of dynamic reflections on interior walls of bedrooms and hallway. Comprising: entrance, library, living, dining, kitchen, family, main bedroom suite, 2 additional bedrooms, study (4th bedroom), powder room, family bathroom, laundry, studio (5th bedroom). Separate home office with bathroom and kitchenette. Double garage with attached storerooms. Located a 5 minute walk from picturesque, private beaches, with a myriad of rock pools and walking tracks that stretch from Cape Schanck to Portsea. Some of the many additional features include: separate home office or guest suite, hydronic under floor heating, 32,000L underground rainwater tank, automatic garden watering system, salt chlorinated solar heated lap pool, drying room, established orchard, ample off street parking & storage facilities. Inspection of this unique offering will not disappoint.
