255-257 Craigie Road

A rare convergence of country life and suburban convenience, or a developer's dream within one of the Mornington Peninsula's much loved seaside towns, this 5 acre (approx.) property offers the ultimate chance to enjoy the best of both worlds or an opening for a developer to subdivide (STCA) in this semi-rural hot spot. On the fringe of Mt Martha's residential area, alongside prestigious small acreages, the property with Low Density Residential zoning presents potential for a 3-lot subdivision (STCA) and the possibility to rezone to Greater Residential Zone 1 (STCA) just moments from Mt Martha beaches, The Briars, village shops, Bentons Square shops and schools. Released for the first time in more than 70 years, on offer are two homes on the site along with extensive garaging and shedding, four paddocks, a fruit orchard with apples, pears, apricots, peaches, nectarines and a small botanical garden beside the homes featuring majestic golden elms. Once part of a dairy farm that graced 40 acres of land off Craigie Rd, the property also includes the original concreted milking sheds as well as a large chicken enclosure and pens, while a paddock laneway and a widened entry off Craigie Rd will appeal to those with horses and live stock. Providing high appeal constructed of sand block, the main residence boasts three living areas including a home theatre and a billiards room, a large kitchen with a full suite of quality Kleenmaid appliances, while sliding doors allow a lovely flow out to a sunny north west-facing alfresco terrace. A luxurious main bedroom has a spa ensuite and walk-in robe, the children's wing is serviced by a family bathroom, while the double remote-controlled garage has direct access into the home. Once the original home on the farm, a 1950s timber home also on the property is in need of some repairs, featuring generously proportioned rooms, large lounge, sunroom, bathroom with corner spa, hardwood floors beneath carpet and an outdoor jacuzzi. On a development belt moments from freeway access providing an easy trip into the city, this is a prime buying opportunity.
