Resort-style living with a touch of the Hamptons, this breathtaking three-bedroom home with solar-heated pool, tennis court and self-contained one-bedroom summerhouse on just under an acre (approx) is the paradise of Pearcedale.
An easy drive to the Somerville shopping district, with Frankston and Mt Eliza just beyond, this serene semi-rural location is surprisingly accessible, affording every luxury within easy reach of the essentials, including Peninsula Link just down the road for city commuters and Woodleigh School.
Artfully renovated, the original 1920s homestead has been beautifully contemporised to incorporate every modern convenience without compromising on any of the classic charm, with a focus on lifestyle-oriented living designed around the central swimming pool and outdoor-entertaining area.
The family living space is awe-inspiring with soaring cathedral ceilings, European Oak timber floors, wood-burning heater in a stone feature wall and bi-fold doors opening to the deck, while the formal living and dining room in the original house merges flawlessly with antique leadlight, corniced ceilings and luminous bay windows.
In the heart of the home, the kitchen includes a Falcon oven, Asko dishwasher and wet bar in a caesarstone counter, while family zoning allows for privacy, placing the master suite with dressing-room/nursery and newly renovated ensuite at one end of the home and the children’s wing with grand interconnecting jack-and-jill bathroom with spa-bath at the other.
House guests or in-laws are privy to their own opulence in the deluxe weatherboard summerhouse with polished concrete floors, large living room with wet bar, contemporary bathroom and bedroom with French doors opening to the expansive lush lawn and tennis court beyond on this tranquil allotment.
The ultimate family dream, the property includes gas log fire, split-system airconditioning, wraparound veranda with multiple alfresco nooks, outdoor shower, cubby house, dual driveways, rain tank and rolling green lawns for kids to play.
