5 Pastons Grove, Mount Martha, VIC

Elevated on one of Mt Martha's highest vantage points, this Mediterranean-style residence sits on a substantial 2,013m² (approx.) block and captures sweeping views across Port Phillip Bay, the rugged curves of the Mt Martha coastline and the distant Melbourne skyline - a panorama that transforms into a glittering light show as day turns to night. Set behind a majestic Canary Island palm and sweeping horseshoe driveway, the home offers a generous footprint and solid bones in a tightly held, premium pocket surrounded by prestigious homes. While there is scope to update and refine the interiors to match the calibre of the location and views, the fundamentals here - the elevation, the land size, the outlook - are simply irreplaceable. A grand entry introduces a reception lounge, one of three living zones throughout the home. The open-plan lounge features a French fireplace set into a stone wall, with double doors opening to a poolside entertaining terrace where the swimming pool and bay backdrop set the scene for what this property could become. The kitchen is well sized with stone benchtops, quality appliances and a walk-in pantry, while the adjacent dining area is wrapped in glass, drawing in natural light and offering a lovely space for everyday living and effortless entertaining. The entry level also includes a versatile room suited to a home cinema, office or fifth bedroom, while upstairs, the main bedroom suite features an ensuite, lounge area and direct balcony access to take in the uninterrupted bay views - the kind of aspect that makes this property's potential so compelling. With extensive rear lawns offering space for children to play or the possibility of a future tennis court or entertaining area, the home also includes a utilities room and internal access to a double remote-controlled garage. Positioned steps from walking trails through Mt Martha Park, and minutes to Mt Martha Golf Club, Martha Cove Marina, Mt Martha Village and the highly regarded Balcombe Grammar, this is a rare opportunity to secure a premium Mt Martha landholding with extraordinary views and shape it into something truly remarkable.​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​
