The design principles are derived from a conventional inter-war Hamptons style. The elegant finishes and sophisticated detailing of the Akehurst Cannata interiors come together through the stringent construction standards of G.E.M Taylor craftsmanship, with landscape architecture by Robert Boden Gardens.

Speaking to LUXURY LIST WEEKEND, Architect Stephen Akehurst of Akehurst Cannata describes the property as a classic and timeless Australian country house designed for a modern lifestyle. 

“The inspiration for the house was its beautiful rural location, with a captivating aspect to the sea. My desire was to create an Australian country house, with all the comfort of modern day living, but with the timeless style of a bygone age.”

The 11-ft ceilings in the primary residence are elevated to 16.5-ft in the central drawing room, enveloped by formal and casual living and dining spaces crafted with open fireplaces and a chef-ready Lacanche granite kitchen.

The original homestead's underground cellar has been integrated into the design, with three ensuite bedrooms eloquently poised to make the most of its stunning Nobbies views through the Musk Creek valley.

A self-contained 2-bedroom guest house sits to the far side of the residence, where the Robert Boden gardens, terraces and formal lawns begin to form, crafting an air of refinement amidst the home's magnificent surroundings. A walled kitchen garden and orchard stand sentinel above an infinity pool terrace.

"Sweeping valley views through to Western Port Bay and Phillip Island, 11.5 acres of award winning vines, combined with an Akehurst designed modern country home, make Musk Creek ideal for those looking for acreage and a generation trophy estate on the peninsula," Will Winter told LUXURY LIST WEEKEND.

Since founding the Musk Creek vineyard in 1997, the Quealy winemaking family has worked tirelessly and closely, with ownership in managing this blue ribbon site. It has consistently produced distinctive wines of the highest order.

This was highlighted recently by all of the Musk Creek Pinot Noir, Pinot Gris and Chardonnay from the 2022 vintage being reviewed as 95pt Gold medal wines by the Real Review

Musk Creek's north aspect, rich volcanic soils and exposure to Westernport Bay make it an ideal site for producing premium Mornington Peninsula wine.

Speaking to LUXURY LIST WEEKEND, Kathleen Quealy, founding winemaker Quealy Winemakers, said  "Musk Creek is a significant vineyard for Quealy Winemakers.

Quealy Musk Creek Pinot Noir, Pinot Gris and Chardonnay are highly sought after and awarded.

The terroir is exceptional for Pinot Noir, Pinor Gris and Chardonnay. It’s a collection of small parcels of classic varieties.

The vineyard situation on the hill, its excellent slope and rich clay soils are major quality factors. The North facing orientation maximizes the sunshine, allowing the vines to create wine of power and distinction."
