With passive design principles woven into its walls, this architecturally breathtaking home gracefully merges nature’s elements with refined sophistication and purpose, fostering a sublime connection to its coastal surroundings.
Natural, textured materials, including bold charred hardwood cladding, reflect the harmony with the landscape. Thoughtfully positioned picture frame windows and sliding doors invite gentle breezes, enhancing cross-ventilation and natural light. A striking Axis wood-fire heater evokes warmth in the north-facing living area, while the 160-metre proximity to Merricks Beach, the outdoor shower, a sustainable underground water tank, and a filtration system intertwine water as an integral part of the design.
Spanning a single level, the layout offers wonderful separation between the main suite and the guest and family wing, balancing privacy with connection. The accommodation includes three/four bedrooms (or study) two with built-in robes, study nooks and direct access to the eastern deck illuminated by morning sunlight.
The lavish main suite with dressing room spills out onto the western deck. Its ensuite is a masterpiece, featuring a silky Falper Italian bathtub that perfectly captures the sunset glow over the stunning neighbouring farmland and established trees. It provides the ultimate relaxation space after a day spent at Merricks Beach among the dolphins or wandering the nearby bush tracks to spot koalas, before indulging in the finest local produce and wineries.
A central entertaining domain is host to an exquisite kitchen. It boasts an elongated island bench, prestige European appliances, a gas cooktop, an integrated wine fridge, soft black veneer cabinetry, and Spanish dolomite stone surfaces that echo throughout. A horizontal window lets in natural light over the day, framing the greenery of the southern courtyard. Sliding doors are framed by soft linen sheers that open at both ends to the alfresco deck, inviting a seamless indoor-outdoor flow through a second living room offering flexibility as a kids playroom, rumpus or TV room.
An abundant organic garden, brimming with edibles to the likes of gooseberries, alpine strawberries, and pomegranates all part of the sustainable lifestyle this residence promotes, supported by an irrigation system over a low-maintenance 1,150 sqm (approx) parcel. The convenience of double U/C car accommodation plus workshop add to the allure.
Every detail in this home has been meticulously considered, from polished concrete floors, hydronic floor heating and reverse cycle heating and cooling, surround sound and integrated picture hooks, cabinetry, storage and inviting daybed. Nestled among serene shores within a vibrant and welcoming community, this is the ultimate beachside location with Balnarring Village amenities and Peninsula luxuries close by. With easy access to and from Melbourne via the freeway only moments away, this is a living experience that truly offers something for everyone.
