The space

Bayfield is truly one of a kind - the ultimate blend of coastal and country living.

Only a 15-minute walk to the Mount Martha beach and shops. Set on over 8,000sqm (2 acres) of private gardens, you'll feel like the hustle and bustle of urban living is a distant memory as you relax poolside enjoying your favourite book and drink. Beyond the pool you can look across the treetops to Port Phillip Bay and watch ships sailing or amazing sunsets.

Providing the perfect retreat, the large resort style pool and spa come complete with sun lounges and umbrellas so you can spend plenty of time relaxing by the pool. The outdoor table setting and BBQ provide everything you need to roll over a lazy afternoon into a warm summer evening of outdoor eating and entertaining.

If you have children, we have you covered! While the inground trampoline is normally the highlight, we have plenty of games, books, toys, an outdoor cubby house, gazebo etc will ensure your little ones are as entertained as you are, making the most of both the indoor and outdoor spaces.

Foxtel (with movies and sport), Netflix and Wi-Fi access come included, ensuring you can relax and binge on your favourite movies and TV series.

We've included a floor plan in our pictures, but it's ideally suited for two families.

It's all on one level, so perfect for the grandparents as well!

THE POOL
The pool and spa is without doubt one of the stand out features of the property. Being North facing, it gets sun all day, from dawn to dusk. And yes, it does have a palm tree in the middle of it, to give it that 'Palm Springs' feel.

The pool has a 'beach profile' with it gently sloping from the shallow end (approx 15cm deep) to the deep end (approx 2m deep). This makes it perfect for wallowing around and enjoying drinks on a sunny day and for younger kids.

Please note that the heating for the pool and spa is listed as a seperate item. We do not have solar heating. Due to the large size of the pool (over 90 sqm) it is very expensive to run and maintain.

It takes approximately 1 day to heat up to 27 degrees. The spa is quicker, and takes about 1 hour. You will be able to control the spa temperature but not the pool.

As you can see from the floor plan, all rooms in the house not only face the pool, but also have direct access to the pool. The pool is fully enclosed with a glass safety pool fence to give you extra piece of mind if you have young children.
