A masterpiece of mediterranean style and craftsmanship gazing out across the bay, this stunning residence and glistening pool on two-thirds of an acre in Mt Eliza's famed golden mile could also be right at home on the shores of Lake Como or the Italian Riviera.
Blending traditional and modern, only the very best materials and fittings have been used to create a truly remarkable home of more than 65 squares where every whim is beautifully catered for with spaces for living and entertaining on almost any scale.
Set behind grand wrought iron gates with a driveway lined with pencil pine cypress, the home's Tuscan rendered and stone fa?ade gives way to a stone paved entry foyer, a home office with bathroom and powder room and the first of four exquisite living areas either leading out to the pool or taking advantage of the close-water views.
The chef's kitchen features a vast stone island bench, twin farmhouse sinks, an 1100mm stainless steel cooking range and suspended canopy, along with a commercial fridge/freezer, butler's pantry and a huge separate larder.
A series of french doors from the dining area open to the stunning pool terrace and barbecue kitchen where summer parties will go long into the night and there is also a large lounge with open fireplace and family and sitting rooms on the lower level.
Upstairs, the bedroom wing contains the spacious main suite with dressing room, sublime ensuite with a bath and double shower, as well as access to a viewing balcony. Two other bedrooms share the main bathroom, while in a separate wing a fourth bedroom also has an ensuite and stairs that rise up to a home theatre on the third level.
With the beach at one end of the street, prestigious Toorak College at the other end and the village also moments away, other features include a triple garage with electric car charger, trampoline and playground for kids and a fire pit zone in the landscaped gardens of this remarkable property.
