This beautiful coastal home in one of Shoreham’s most tightly held positions has been sold via expressions of interest by Andrew Hines and Cass Hines of Kay & Burton.

The single story four family home was listed on Friday 28 February and sold after 42 days on market, with 6 open for inspections (prior to COVID-19 restrictions) and 3 private inspections prior to the sale.

The price was quoted between $2,450,000 and $2,650,000, and the home sold in the lower end of the price range. 

“There was great interest in the property, the style of house was appealing and resonated with buyers. It is an easy home to live in with children, open plan, central pool, optional guest accommodation, all being a short walk to the beach in the highly sought after Mornington Peninsula. It ticked all the boxes,” agent Andrew Hines told WILLIAMS MEDIA.

The home was purchased by a Melbourne couple who are relocating permanently to the coast. 

“They previously had a smaller weekender in the area but loved it so much, that when they got to a stage in life that they could spend more time down here, they decided this was where they wanted to be permanently,” Hines told WILLIAMS MEDIA.

“The section of the Mornington Peninsula that we specialise in, is highly sought after by the upper end of the Melbourne market, as their chosen weekend destination. This is because of the beaches, wineries, and convenient proximity back to the city.”

Just a short walk from the beach, the five bedroom residence has been professionally designed for comfortable family living and easy entertaining with two separate wings of the home wrapping around an internal courtyard. 

Feature barn doors lead to a light filled entry foyer, where your eyes are immediately drawn down the internal courtyard and over the solar heated in-ground pool to the lush rear garden, purposely positioned to connect the outdoor and indoor spaces of this brilliant entertainer.

One wing comprises 3 equally proportioned bedrooms all with fully fitted built in robes, main family bathroom and laundry. To the rear of this wing you will find the Master suite featuring double sliding doors that flow out to the rear deck and gardens, a spacious ensuite and walk in robe.

The other wing consists of quiet lounge room with vaulted ceilings and open fire place with a floating concrete hearth and dry stacked granite surround. Moving toward the rear you will find a separate powder room, generous country style kitchen with butler’s pantry and finished with a beautiful black Ilve freestanding oven. The kitchen seamlessly opens out to the dining and lounge area and enjoys the same detail of vaulted ceilings and beautiful open fireplace.

Set beyond the lounge, a generous alfresco flows down to a sawn bluestone patio that seamlessly connects the main residence to the ensuited studio. This flexible space could be utilised as a training / Pilates studio, fifth bedroom or home office.

A plethora of additional features include a 6 star energy rating, twin instantaneous hot water units, twin ducted heating and cooling units, 5kw solar heating system, double glazed rylock windows, large DLUG with internal access, and private driveway.
