Contemporary Entertainer of Impeccable Design in Private Surrounds. “Melaleuca’’


Rarely does a property exude so much allure as this elite Portsea estate that beautifully merges the indoors with the outdoors to deliver a lifestyle property with excellence less than 400 metres from beautiful Shelley Beach and walking distance to the iconic coastal village.


An outstanding display of talent by architect Christopher Doyle and constructed by highly reputable Smith Builders, elegance and ambience present in spectacular fashion in this sun-drenched floorplan that reveals a soaring mezzanine and walls of windows brilliantly connecting the heart of the home to the surrounding grounds.


With a serene outlook across sweeping lawns to the flood-lit north-south tennis court and a tiled heated swimming pool and spa, a sumptuous lounge and dining area is surrounded by a choice of alfresco spaces backdropped by gardens that provide exquisite privacy across the full expanse of estate.


Grand sliding doors glide open for superb flow out to a large east-facing deck that offers glorious morning sun and a full BBQ kitchen with pizza oven, while the opposite side of the lounge opens seamlessly to a bluestone terrace with glass roof overhead and an outdoor fireplace.


With a focus on entertaining, the space also includes an outdoor bar bench opening directly off the epicurean kitchen which is fully equipped to serve up your gourmet delights with marble surfaces, a cool room and a nearby temperature-controlled wine cellar.


Stretching away from the hub of the home, the parent’s private wing delivers a glorious garden aspect and an outlook directly over the sparkling pool, including a dressing room, a marble ensuite and a parent’s lounge with fireplace for cosy winter evenings.


Upstairs, the palatial mezzanine hallway has all the essence of an art gallery with spectacular light and vast spaces to hang your precious pieces for enjoyment alongside an upper level lounge and media room, the children’s/guests bedrooms and bathrooms.


Behind an auto gate, with triple car accommodation with EV charging station and remote-controlled blinds for complete ease, a pool bathroom/change room and sonos sound system complete this ultimate summer house.
