Steps from the beach, this enchanting seaside residence combines beautifully renovated interior spaces with a magnificent garden and an idyllic pool. The thoughtfully designed rooms and glorious gardens have been conceived by a bestselling garden writer, and now form a dream retreat for a family seeking a new lifestyle on the Mornington Peninsula.

The charming entrance and front veranda, embroidered in climbing roses and jasmine, features twin French doors that lead to the formal garden. Inside, the living room is a dramatic vision of navy and white, with soaring vaulted ceilings and a French Seguin wood fireplace for winter nights. The large kitchen is ideal for cooks, with a Smeg cooker, a ceramic sink, and adjoining laundry / butler’s pantry in a matching design. The lovely dining room, pretty sunroom and covered deck offer multiple entertaining options for family or friends, while the rear pool is surrounded by a low-maintenance Mediterranean garden – the perfect place to spend summer weekends. Finally, professionals working from home will love the enormous studio with its kitchenette and French doors offering direct access to the front. Or convert the studio to a grand master suite, with a second story (STCA) to capture the sea breezes and views.

Located 100m from Coral Cove’s much-loved swimming beach and the Esplanade’s walking tracks, and a short drive to both Mornington and Mount Martha’s famous cafes, this is a glamorous, gracious beach house that will allow you to live out your coastal dreams effortlessly.
