49 Shoreham Road, RED HILL SOUTH VIC 3937

Encapsulating the insurmountable beauty and profound peace of its inimitable location deep in the heart of the hinterland, this spectacular property—offered to the market for the first time in over 20 years—spans approximately 17 acres of verdant views extending to the sparkling waters of Western Port beyond. Superbly tucked away beyond a commercial olive grove of some 400 long established trees, the property is introduced by picturesque rows of towering Poplars, Plane trees and Spotted Gums, alluding to the awe inspiring aspect to come. With acclaimed architect Allan Powell bringing the owner’s vision to life, the house rests discreetly in its landscape and forges an intimate connection to its resplendent surrounds. Formulated with sublime symmetry promoting instant relaxation, its limed spotted gum cladding cohesively links indoors and out, creating a warm, welcoming environment and soothing sense of quiet luxury. Inspiring both quiet contemplation and large-scale entertaining, the main living zone flows to a comprehensively appointed ‘chefs’ kitchen, featuring a revered 1400mm French Lacanche cooker and abundant storage, permeated by an idyllic outlook to the dappled shade of Dutch Elm trees. A second living area, warmed by a gas log fire, doubles as a home office or private parents retreat. Ensuring year round enjoyment of the ever changing aspects, a choice of inviting al fresco options includes European inspired terraces beneath jasmine draped pergolas, and an intimate garden room beneath those towering Dutch Elms. In the main residence, three ensuite bedrooms include a restful main with a walk-through robe and a self-contained home office. A former shed has been sympathetically converted into an enchanting, French provincial-inspired cottage, featuring an open plan living area, two ensuite bedrooms, and French doors opening onto a ficus-covered balcony. A testament to the love and care of its owners, the meticulously maintained property delivers an unparalleled level of lifestyle infrastructure, including a tennis court and solar heated pool, while a highly productive vegie garden and a thriving orchard is enhanced by a stunning scented rose garden. Supporting the award-winning and successful olive oil label ‘The Stream’, the olive shed includes an office, cool store, and machinery shed with a toilet. Additional shedding, a double garage, and a powder room, along with immense under-house storage, offer fabulous flexibility. Unique and exceptional in every sense, ‘The Stream’ holds undeniable appeal as one of the Mornington Peninsula’s premier lifestyle properties, in the heart of the wine region and within easy reach of local shops and restaurants.
