It is high architectural and design praise indeed when a residence sits so assuredly in its setting, with quality in such abundance, that age or style is rendered irrelevant. So it is with ‘Damascus’, an exceptional property designed by multi-award winning architect Richard Kerr, nestled amongst Moonah trees on a huge allotment of over 2,000 sqm with garden design by Fiona Brockhoff directly adjacent to the Mornington Peninsula National Park.
Constructed in 2007 to exceptional standards, the 4 bedroom (all over sized), 3 bathroom residence exudes timeless and earthy luxury throughout, with limestone, brick and timber all prominent. A dramatic floorplan allows zoned family flexibility, with the master bedroom and study joining the open-plan kitchen, dining and living areas on the upper level, from where a large balcony overlooks the solar heated pool and spa with glorious 180-degree views over the peninsula and Port Phillip Bay beyond. The lower level provides accommodation for family and guests, with an additional lounge doubling as a cinema room with adjacent cellar and kitchenette.
The property impresses with an abundance of technology for comfort and efficiency. A 38-panel solar system provides for negligible energy costs, while an 11,000 litre roof-fed underground water tank provides drinking and cleaning water (augmented by mains). Connected Living has been employed for comprehensive home automation (including audio-visual entertainment, hydronic and slab heating, zoned A/C, lighting and automatic window shutters). A bore water and fully-automated garden irrigation further support an enviable, low-maintenance lifestyle.
Take advantage of post-pandemic holiday demand (approx. $10k rental per week) or privately enjoy for generations to come. ‘Damascus’ offers a compelling package in every respect – designed and built to last, just like the memories to be forged within.
Proudly marketed by the team at Peninsula Sotheby's International Realty.
