About this property

The Dunes - Blairgowrie back beach sanctuary

Inspired by the local winery, Montalto, the home is designed to blend seamlessly with its natural surroundings. It is framed by landscaped native gardens and features striking rammed earth walls that echo the sandy hues of the nearby dunes. Expansive glass doors flood the interiors with natural light and open onto a spacious north-facing courtyard, providing a serene space to relax and entertain.

Inside, the home is a masterclass in style and comfort, with a Scandinavian-inspired kitchen at its heart. Equipped with a Smeg 900mm stove, farmhouse sink, and walk-in pantry, the kitchen overlooks a welcoming dining and family area warmed by a corner open fireplace. A second generous living space opens onto the alfresco deck, where a built-in barbecue, sink, and pergola-covered dining area create the perfect setting for long summer evenings with friends and family. The main bedroom is a private sanctuary, featuring a luxurious ensuite with a deep soaking tub and walk-in shower, while the remaining three bedrooms all offer direct access to a peaceful rear deck, where the lush private gardens provide a tranquil retreat.

Situated just a short drive from Blairgowrie’s vibrant café strip, as well as the charming town centres of Sorrento and Rye, this home offers a truly effortless getaway. Fully furnished for a seamless stay, it comes complete with modern comforts including hydronic floor heating, split-system air-conditioning, polished hardwood floors, and ample off-street parking. Whether you’re seeking a serene holiday escape or a stylish base for exploring the Mornington Peninsula, this coastal haven delivers the perfect blend of relaxation and refinement.
