This beautiful six acre property in Tucks Road, is an intriguing architect-designed five-bedroom home situated amongst a rural lifestyle that we could easily fall in love with.

It captures the true essence of the Peninsula’s rolling hinterland with a selection of wineries close by, the sheltered property is a private haven with architecture that harks back to the Australian modernist era of the 1960s and 70s tempered with contemporary renovations including a fabulous entertaining deck for long Sunday lunches.

It also has a substantial vegetable garden where you can grow your own  produce while there is plenty of room to keep a pony or other animals, reliable bore water with a small desalination plant, established shade trees and a garage/workshop complex in the same style as the stunning home.

A huge open plan living and dining area with a wood heater and loads of glass captures treed and pasture views and distant glimpses to Bass Strait beyond while there is also a cosy second living area with open fireplace, a master bedroom with modern en-suite and a granite kitchen featuring a butler’s pantry and large Ilve stainless steel gas cooker.

Other features include mod grass tennis court and disused stables.

Little more than an hour from the city, this is the perfect country escape from the bustle of the big smoke.
