‘Merinda’ – Extraordinary Inside and Out | 1.53 acres (approx.)

The very best of country peninsula lifestyles awaits with ‘Merinda’ – a truly extraordinary property on 1.53 acres (approx.) where a breathtaking outdoor environment is complimented by a refined 4-bedroom country residence.

The landscape designer, owner-vendor of Heath Landscape, renowned for a key role in some of the region’s most admired properties (including ‘Horizon’, Flinders’ crowning clifftop residence), has undertaken a visionary project to celebrate the virtues of the site and create spectacular new lifestyle additions. From entry through automatic security gates and down the sweeping return driveway surrounded by stone walls, a stately aggregate-paved portico hints at what is to come.

The residence itself is a fabulous example of effortless country style and zoned family living. At the private northern end of the home is a master bedroom with walk-in robe and ensuite (with freestanding bathtub) and home office – all opening onto adjoining decking. These are joined by beautiful family, formal dining, meals and living spaces, along with a central kitchen featuring timber benchtops, shaker cabinetry and high-end appliances, and a further three bedrooms and bathroom. Almost all rooms feature stunning outlooks over countryside to Western Port Bay in the distance.

Stepping down from a huge timber deck for alfresco dining, those inspired landscapes continue with a stunning 11m x 4m glass-fenced, tiled and solar heated swimming pool, then with tiered decking, manicured lawns and striking designer gardens, where automatic lighting also creates a spectacular evening aesthetic.

Further features: Secure garage, studio, tool shed, contained chicken house and run, established fruit trees and veggie patches, high grade bore water system, automatic garden irrigation, Ozone filtration tank water, under-house storage, comprehensive CCTV security/alarm system, gas ducted heating, and wood heater.

‘Merinda’ is a landmark property that combines the features of a hobby-farm (sans the maintenance) with the coveted lifestyle credentials of Mornington Peninsula renown, with Merricks General Store, bay and surf beaches, and acclaimed wineries and restaurants on the doorstep and Melbourne city only an hour’s drive away.

Proudly marketed by the team at Peninsula Sotheby’s International Realty.
