Inspect By Appointment on Saturday, 11.00am - 11.30am.

Unrivalled in scale and cinematic beauty, this 29-acre (approx) SJB-designed estate asserts itself with architectural strength and vineyard provenance, its glass and timber volumes opening to 12 acres of Pinot vines cultivated for Polperro through the ‘Little Laney Vineyard’ label. Across the dam and bushland, horizons unfold toward Western Port and Phillip Island in an undisturbed spectacle considered among the hinterland’s finest.

Conceived as a series of pavilions, the multi-level design responds to generational living with spaces that expand and contract between retreat and gathering. From the raised foyer, the floorplan expands to a fireside living domain that rises beneath dramatic timber-lined ceilings and clerestory windows, their geometry mirroring the rich, earthy palette carried throughout while remaining open to a bespoke modern overlay if desired.

Draped in warm terrazzo and appointed with ILVE cooking appliances, the kitchen continues the impeccable approach to functional design with an integrated dishwasher and abundant preparation and storage space. A skylight channels daylight through the dining area, as retractable glass doors extend to the broad deck, encouraging entertaining outdoors amid transcendently calm scenery, with a second living and dining area nearby.

Stairs ascend to the primary retreat, a private realm complete with a library, integrated desk and eastern balcony. A walk-through robe and twin-vanity ensuite enhance the indulgence, while a further flight rises to the tower, a lofty vantage uniting a trilogy of water views including the outdoor spa, dam and ocean. Along the hallway, four additional robed bedrooms and two bathrooms enjoy leafy garden outlooks, while an upper billiards room offers a more relaxed area for play or quiet retreat.

A sweetgum-lined driveway delivers an illustrious seasonal arrival, guiding the approach to a courtyard entry and four-car steel garage with integrated storage cages. Beyond, the estate extends to an orchard, a bocce court, large shed and sweeping lawns, with walking tracks weaving through the bushland for a deeper encounter of the natural landscape.

Exempt from the burden of land tax, further inclusions extend to ducted and hydronic heating, split systems, electric blinds and a security system. Despite its feeling of rural seclusion, it remains immersed in the celebrated atmosphere of wine country, with the village, restaurants, Merricks Trail and acclaimed cellar doors all close at hand.
