With a masterful balance of international style, Italian influence and informal, spacious living, Nicholas Day has captured the essence of holiday relaxation in a true 5-star resort setting. Designed for both comfort and effortless entertaining, the residence offers a thoughtfully considered layout featuring a luxurious master bedroom with private ensuite, a beautifully appointed second master suite also with its own ensuite, a generous family bathroom, and an additional powder room for guests. A versatile fourth bedroom and cleverly designed accommodation with two queen bunk setups provide ample space for family and visitors alike.
At the heart of the home, an expansive open-plan lounge, dining and kitchen area creates a warm and inviting atmosphere, anchored by a striking open fireplace, perfect for year-round enjoyment. Walls of glass draw in natural light and seamlessly connect the indoors to a wraparound verandah, ideal for alfresco dining or simply soaking in the tranquil surroundings.
Outside, broad verandas overlook rolling lawns, a North/South mod grass tennis court, and an electric heat pump–heated swimming pool, all contributing to the property’s resort-like appeal. Positioned within an exclusive and secure gated court, the home is just moments from Portsea Golf Course, short walk to Portsea Village and enjoys exquisite vistas stretching to Delgany Castle, completing this exceptional lifestyle offering.
