Welcome to a truly one-of-a-kind architectural gem on the Mornington Peninsula. This home boasts more glass than walls, offering an indoor-outdoor flow that immerses you in nature while enjoying all the modern amenities you could dream of.

-A master suite with a king-sized bed and ensuite bathroom. -A second bedroom with a queen bed and ample space. -A third bedroom with two bunk beds and trundles, sleeping up to 6—ideal for kids or teens (adults welcome too).
