About this property

Designed for grand-scale living and entertaining, this impeccably presented, indulgently appointed, and impressively updated four bedroom plus study family home, on approximately two meticulously maintained acres in Mornington's exclusive Benton Grange Estate, offers all the space, amenities, and privileges of semi-rural resort-style living, just minutes to Main Street, Beaches, and prestigious schools. Set behind manicured lawns, centred with a majestic Canary Island date palm, the sprawling single-level sandstone residence is rich in classic modern country homestead style. Light-filled and spacious, with polished spotted gum flooring and soaring ceilings, the formal and informal living and dining spaces are wrapped around a newly renovated gourmet kitchen, resplendent with marble benchtops and high-end appliances including a Smeg induction cooktop and a pair of Smeg ovens offering multi-functionality including microwave and air-fryer. There is also a Zip hydro tap that dispenses chilled still, sparkling, and boiling water, and a secondary sink in the adjoining butler's pantry. Offering a bespoke sanctuary-like space, the re-vamped main bedroom incorporates a large fitted walk-in robe/dressing room and a luxe fully tiled under-floor heated ensuite with a Balinese-inspired double-shower opening to a private garden courtyard, while a private deck with an indulgent outdoor bathtub is accessed via glass sliding doors. A separate wing comprises the three family bedrooms, all with built-in robes and ceiling fans, and the principal bathroom with built-in tub, separate shower, and a powder room. There is also a home office/study with access door to the enormous four-car double remote-operated door garage, and a large laundry with internal retractable clothesline and external access to two additional clotheslines. Inviting the utmost in entertaining from small family gatherings to grand parties, the home's alfresco pavilion is flanked with café blinds allowing for all-season enjoyment, while a built-in barbecue, wood-fired pizza oven, and festive lighting enhance the relaxed ambience. Edged with palm trees, the in-ground solar/gas heated swimming pool offers resort-style amenity, while a kids' adventure playground with flying fox, a football-pitch sized lawn, veggie beds, and a row of fruit trees including olive, lemon, lime, apricot, apple, pear, avocado and fig complete the idyllic outdoor space. A newly constructed, 20m x 10m steel shed is fully plumbed, wired, and fitted with a mechanical hoist, kitchenette, air conditioning and WC offering an ideal home-based business space as well as storage for a boat or caravan, while there are additional sheds for garden equipment and wood storage. Additional features include a 7.5 kilowatts solar rooftop panels, CCTV security, wood fire heating, central heating, split systems, security camera, an abundance of storage including ample roof-space storage, ducted vacuum, and an automated garden sprinkler system. Located in the prestigious Benton Grange estate, an exclusive low-traffic cul-de-sac loved by residents for its welcoming family-focussed community vibe, it is close to the greenspace of Summerfield and Balcombe Creek reserves, and just a few minutes' drive to Main Street, the harbour, and the beach, and with easy access to Mornington Peninsula Freeway. The property is also in walking distance to Benton Junior College, and on bus routes to a choice of local schools including Padua Collage, Peninsula Grammar, and Balcombe Grammar.
