Tucked within a property of rare natural beauty is a home designed with intention. Crafted by B.E Architecture, every line, beam, and pane of glass reflects meticulous sophistication, where bold steel meets gentle earth and modernity meets serenity. The result is a residence both striking and harmoniously attuned to its landscape. Passing through the front gate, rolling green pastures stretch across 91 acres (approx.) framed by sweeping blue and green horizons that unfold over Bass Strait. A charming private lake with a landing jetty and boathouse, a long row of 100-year-old Cyprus trees, elegant courtyards and a hand-built ornamental bridge leading to a secluded bushwalk, all combine to form a diverse countryside sanctuary that heightens the senses. Floor-to-ceiling glass draws the outdoors in, from the lounge anchored by a stone-set open fireplace to the casual meals area, sunken family room, and gourmet kitchen, appointed with sleek stainless-steel surfaces, premium Smeg appliances, and warm timber accents. An architectural wing extends from the central living zone to the main bedroom. Accessed via a glass walkway, the main bedroom offers incomparable vistas, a vast double ensuite with a deep bath overlooking the hills, and a private lounge or home office. The lower level provides a family haven with a games room and lounge, featuring a gas fireplace, two fitted bedrooms opening to a rustic alfresco area, a bathroom with a bath capturing bay views, and a third private guest bedroom with an ensuite. Encircling the home, alfresco terraces invite year-round living with an outdoor lounge and firepit, a hidden heated loggia with a BBQ and pizza oven, and a manicured vegetable garden ideal for entertaining. Additional features include a tennis court seamlessly integrated into the landscape, a hangar-style shed, and a separate studio bedroom or private guest quarters with a bathroom. Just minutes from world-renowned wineries, thermal springs, golf courses, and the vibrant township of Flinders, and only 90 minutes from Melbourne's CBD, this sanctuary offers a rare fusion of lakeside tranquillity, coastal vistas, and architectural brilliance, creating a lifestyle truly without comparison.
