Walking up the driveway and along the cool Shou sugi ban cladding and rammed earth walls up to the custom-made front door, it is hard not to be impressed by the grandeur and detail of the design. As you enter the property you are met with the open plan kitchen with marble benchtops and living room with engineered timber flooring and high ceilings with loads of natural light as it flows out to the covered alfresco and pool. The floorplan spans deep into the block as the master is appropriately zoned in the middle of the home and the additional 3 bedrooms are tucked away at the rear serviced by a second living room and ample bathrooms. Exquisite interiors by Heartly Design and thoughtful landscape design by BLAC.
The house overall is a big tick. Will really appeal to the large family with older kids whether it be for weekends or permanents. The location is more of an up and coming area although it is close to the water in fact just 130m. The premium end of Mt Martha is situated on the other side of the village above South Beach probably due to the elevation and views and nicer beach whereas this home is one of the first of its calibre at the Helena St end to hit the market. The area certainly is undergoing gentrification and those buyers looking for a luxury home on a flat block below $5M so close to the water are unlikely to find options at the South Beach end.
