128 Bungower Road

Somerville VIC 3912

A mesmerising display of scale and rich period detail, this Victorian-inspired estate sprawls across a generous 5,001 sq. metre (approx.) botanical allotment, flaunting a commanding double frontage and a grand circular drive that makes an entrance to remember. Masterfully maintained and sympathetically enhanced, it marries the absolute comforts of today with the elegance of a bygone era, enjoying a setting on the cusp of suburbia just moments from Somerville Village and the greater Mornington Peninsula.

A solid-brick showcase of craftsmanship, character and grace is preceded by a magnificent date palm, with wide wraparound verandahs framing its presence and understated flair. Inside, 10-ft ceilings, ornate detailing and bold period hues wrap every space, from the formal lounge and dining rooms with their own ornate fireplaces, to the family and dining room that shines with herringbone parquetry floors and filtered natural light.

Tradition blends with today's luxuries in the stone-topped kitchen, flaunting high-quality appliances and a corner pantry, ready to move outdoors to the paved central entertaining courtyard, or the covered patio to the rear that breathes in the beauty of its significant grounds. Four robed bedrooms include a master retreat with a fitted dressing room, ensuite, and terrace access, with a family bathroom serving the remainder.
