47-49 Prescott Avenue, Mount Martha
LAZIO
Celebrating the grandeur and opulence of an Italian-inspired estate, this is a unique opportunity to experience your very own La Dolce Vita just 200 metres from the sandy shores of iconic South Beach. Claiming one of Mount Martha's most prestigious locations, 'Lazio' - meaning Provence of Rome - proudly sits on nearly an acre (3,600sqm approx.) of glorious land in a quiet, leafy enclave on the corner of Prescott and Lempriere Avenues.
A former golf course clubhouse and favourite relaxation spot for American soldiers during WWII, the private, resort-style estate is now a spectacular family haven where you enjoy a hit of tennis, laze by the swimming pool/spa and host magical gatherings that are sure to be long remembered.
Set amongst a stunning landscape of towering trees, lush green lawn and park-like gardens, the 5-bedroom, 3-bathroom residence offers a staggering 55sq (approx.) of living with potential to make the home your own or start again and re-build the ultimate coastal oasis (STCA).
Capturing the romance of a bygone era with touches of Italian flair, the light-filled property features soaring ceilings, detailed cornices and two ornate fireplaces with luxurious marble finishes and French doors throughout. A granite kitchen with a walk-in pantry, wine cellar, separate tasting room and a magnificent all-seasons alfresco area make this a true entertainer's home, alongside a picturesque outdoor terrace with a water fountain as its centrepiece.
Brimming with sophistication, the elegant master wing boasts an ensuite adorned in Versace tiles with a traditional clawfoot tub as well as a parents' retreat and two balconies including a charming Juliet balcony overlooking the pool.
Completing this extraordinary package is a ground-floor guest suite with a sitting area, study and ensuite, a home gym/studio, ducted heating/cooling, a laundry/powder room plus off-street parking with secure Gate A and Gate B entry points.
A short walk to the village and moments from quality schools, this incredible sea change or holiday sanctuary is just over an hour from Melbourne's CBD.
