Crowning the San Remo hillside on approximately 27.63 fertile acres of established olive grove, this grand tri-level residence commands a prized position on an exclusive no-through lane. Beautifully elevated to capture sweeping panoramic views across Western Port Bay, Phillip Island and the surrounding countryside, the five-bedroom estate delivers exceptional scale and versatility suited to multigenerational living, large families, live-in staff or premium boutique accommodation.
Absolute privacy, architectural presence and an income-producing olive enterprise converge in this rare blue-chip holding — a signature address that feels a world away, yet remains moments from the local seaside fishing village, Kilcunda’s rugged coastline and iconic Phillip Island, with seamless access to Melbourne via the South Gippsland Highway.
Main Residence
The entry level centres around an enclosed Mediterranean-inspired courtyard, forming a sheltered oasis framed by French doors that connect bedrooms and living zones to the sculpted outdoor pond, colonnaded walkways and a rear double-glazed terrace. Five bedrooms occupy this level, three with private ensuites including the master with walk-through robe, spa ensuite and underfloor heating to the main ensuite and walk-in robe. Additional features include a mud room, laundry, dog shower, games room, kitchenette, powder room and main bathroom.
Weather-safe arrival is provided via a covered double carport or oversized remote garage with internal access and rear drive-through capability. A lift and spiral staircase connect all three levels.
The upper level is dedicated to living and entertaining, anchored by a stone-topped kitchen with island bench and walk-in pantry, flowing to dining and living zones, a separate lounge and purpose-built viewing room. Two powder rooms service this level, complemented by expansive balcony access.
Heating is comprehensive, featuring an open wood fireplace, gas fireplaces, wall heating, split-system air conditioning, ceiling fans, and traditional wood fires, ensuring year-round comfort across all levels.
The third level forms a private observatory — a lofty retreat ideal for reading, painting or quiet reflection, with uninterrupted views across the Woolamai hills and bay beyond.
The Villa
Set above the olive grove, the fully self-contained mezzanine cottage captures uninterrupted coastal vistas from Western Port to Phillip Island. Open-plan living, meals and kitchen are enhanced by multiple French doors, double glazing, a dishwasher, split-system and potbelly heater. Upstairs, the bedroom and bathroom frame the view, while a front deck extends the outlook. With private parking and proven returns of approximately $840 per weekend, it offers strong income appeal.
The Grounds
The property is supported by over 155,000 litres of water storage, integrating rainwater capture with selective mains-fed distribution, alongside greywater irrigation for landscaped gardens. Infrastructure includes a paddock with horse shelter, deep dam with floating jetty, potting shed, greenhouse, storeroom, raised growing beds and a substantial machinery shed with powered cool and pressing room. A 15kW solar inverter system underpins energy efficiency.
Approximately 1,000 established olive trees produce award-winning oils supplied to select Victorian retail and hospitality outlets, with proven varieties including Koroneiki, Kalamata, Manzanilla, Leccino and Californian Queen.
A rare lifestyle sanctuary and walk-in-ready agri-tourism opportunity in one of the region’s most tightly held coastal locations.
