This impeccable estate sits high on the hill above Clifton Springs with breathtaking views across Port Phillip Bay towards the You Yangs and Mt Macedon, and panoramic views of undulating pastoral hills. Set across three acres (approx.) with established grape vines, olive grove, orchard, manicured gardens and a working, non-commercial winery ? ?High Ridge? label ? producing four grape varietals. This is a prestigious property that reflects maturity, luxury and quality and offers the best of both coastal and rural living. Nothing has been overlooked!
Enter the property via the sweeping, garden-lined driveway directing you to the double lock-up garage and house entry. From here, a north-facing deck welcomes you, offering panoramic views past the ?endless? pool and spa, an ideal place to soak up the afternoon sun as it sets over the water. Inside the four-bedroom sandstone home, a lounge area, lovingly called the ?Viewing Room,? frames the view with an enormous picture window and leads into a formal sitting and dining room with bay windows. To the other side, a country kitchen with Corian benchtop, modern appliances and a large walk-in pantry leads to a cosy meals area and family room with gas-log fire. Ten-foot ceilings and wide-profile recycled Jarrah floors are featured throughout, as are German-fabricated tilt-and-turn double glazed windows, with all living areas oriented towards the northern aspect and the view across the bay.
Each of the bedrooms features a garden or pastoral view, with the master bedroom incorporating a walk-in robe and spacious ensuite bathroom. There are a further three generously proportioned bedrooms, each with built-in robes, two in a separate eastern wing, served by a family bathroom, and the third, currently set-up as a spacious study, accessed from the central Viewing Room with an adjacent powder room off the laundry. Ample hallway storage abounds.
This property offers a fantastic opportunity for a vigneron, or prospective vigneron, to secure a large property with established vines alongside a high-quality family home. The non-commercial winery, established in the 10x5m basement area below the house, includes all the equipment to continue producing small-scale wines. With an incredible, raised position above Clifton Springs, this estate presents an opportunity not to be missed. Inspect today.
