From its elevated perch above Portarlington’s renowned wine country, this residence feels less like a home and more like a front row theatre to nature’s grand performance. The panorama is unmatched. Point Richards Reserve spills into the glittering sweep of Port Phillip Bay, the You Yangs and Barrabool Hills rise in the distance and Melbourne’s skyline shimmers on the horizon. Each day brings its own spectacle, from the Spirit of Tasmania crossing the sea, to sherbet sunsets that dissolve into starlit skies.
Approached via a private service road, the home is peaceful, private and purposeful. Inside, polished timber floors and soft neutral tones anchor the interiors, ensuring attention is always drawn outward to the ever changing seascape. The open plan living, meals and kitchen zone is wrapped in glazing, unfolding into a fully enclosable sunroom providing a vantage point designed for every occasion, whether a summer celebration, a quiet winter’s evening or the drama of the Avalon Airshow overhead.
A classic timber kitchen is both warm and practical, finished with stone benches, stainless steel appliances, a corner pantry and breakfast bar, equally ready for festive gatherings as for Sunday brunch. Beyond, thriving gardens deliver homegrown abundance, with fruiting citrus, olives, cherries and seasonal vegetables ripe for farm-to-table creativity.
The three bedrooms are generously scaled, the primary with a private ensuite and each designed as a sanctuary after long days spent outdoors. Reverse cycle heating and cooling, expansive under house storage, a single garage, carport and thoughtful detailing throughout ensure day-to-day ease.
Just moments from Portarlington’s vibrant main street, foreshore and ferry, and surrounded by the Bellarine’s finest wineries and eateries, this is a lifestyle as indulgent as it is convenient.
What makes this property truly exceptional is its potential. A rare canvas where renovation, extension or even subdivision (STCA) could transform an already extraordinary address into your family’s coastal legacy.
