7 Hay Street, Rye VIC 3941

Framed in an exquisite coastal setting of 2583m2 approx, embraced by sculptural Moonah trees and enhanced by the sounds of Rye Ocean beach and Tasman sea, this coastal home on Victoria's Mornington Peninsula has an authentic sense of place -representing a stunning collaboration of the Vendors exacting Scandinavian coastal influence and landscaping architects Illuka Design.
The home nestles privately behind an electronic gate, featuring granite sand walkways, clipped and balled indigenous plants with outdoor entertaining and pathways paved in French pattern limestone to complement the indigenous surrounds. The fully reticulated allotment is essentially flat allowing for the home to embrace the space on the site to give freedom of movement to the idyllic lifestyle it exudes.
The upgrades to the home are the work of Beach Habitat Design and KF Constructions resulting in a sublime coastal residence with a high level of detail and care. (Details are available on request).
The building and outdoor entertaining are perfectly oriented to take advantage of northeasterly light with verandahs and outdoor louvres to redirect summer sun whilst inside, the home is temperate year-round with both wood burner and gas-fired heating providing ambient warmth with Daikin cooling systems situated effectively throughout for summer months.
The interiors are sensory and calming through a dedicated private entry, offering the choice of three living spaces all opening to gardens annexed by a fully equipped chef's kitchen across low maintenance tiled flooring.
Accommodation is discreetly spaced; the main bedroom is separate and enjoys a private Japanese inspired garden view through cool linen drops through to private ensuite with underfloor heating. The second and third bedrooms accessed through a separate wing are serviced by a main family style bathroom and large family laundry with exit to discreet "working areas" enhanced by vegetable gardens and fruit trees.
Outdoor entertaining is seamlessly blended with the home on a single level and outdoor cooking set in limestone benches harmonising the ambiance of surrounds.
For those who wish to work from home, the spacious study and reading room will cater perfectly with separate entry featuring Vol Molken cabinetry and double Vintec wine fridge.

The Ocean Precinct of Rye where this property is situated is unique; most allotments are either 1/2, 2/3 or an entire acre of land providing privacy, low density and cannot be subdivided under the current planning laws. (DD04)

The design of the home exemplifies all the elements of a life now and the future; of simple elegance and timeless beauty.
