Step back in time with Mentone's biggest, coolest mid-century estate.... or look to the future with approved Plans & Permit for 3x luxury homes in this prime cul-de-sac location. Stretched out in vast palm-fringed approx 898sqm grounds with an immense pool and spa behind invisible glass-fencing, an awning-shaded entertainment area alongside a BBQ pavilion, and a huge 4 car garage plus parking, this significant four bedroom plus home-office, two bathroom home is a unique lifestyle opportunity for a modern family ...and for those who love Mid-Century Modern design.
Inspired by the iconic 1960s homes of Palm Springs and built on the most substantial scale, this remarkable retro home offers grand living and entertaining with vast formal lounge/dining, home-office and family living-dining all facing the pool, plus a quiet sitting-room at the heart of it all. There's even a great escape to a garden-view master-domain (with a wall of robes and a fully-tiled dual-vanity ensuite with freestanding bath) when the party's over.
Starring a prestige Miele appliance kitchen centre-stage in the terrazzo-tiled family zone, and a full family laundry back-of-house, the home features stone benchtops (waterfall-edge for the kitchen) and sculptural ceiling-fans against a backdrop of streamlined 1960s features including authentic hardwood floors, tall aluminium-edged glazing, and an abundance of original storage cabinetry.
This outstanding estate even has an eye to the future; with plans and permits for 3x architect-designed homes to share this sizeable site...and a location to reward for a lifetime. Secluded in a quiet court, yet so central to Mentone's beachside lifestyle and educational opportunity, this impressive Mid-Century home is located for a family lifetime with all the Mentone schools in reach, Mentone Girls and Beaumaris Secondary Colleges in Zone, and a highly-walkable address within a stroll of the beach, station and village shopping, and just one stop down the line to Southland.
