"Boogoolum" is a one-of-a-kind eco property secluded on a private and pristine 49.5 acres (approx.) and completely encompassed by Greens Bush, Mornington Peninsula National Park compromising some 4,400 acres. A six bedroom three bathroom craftsman built residence is woven into the natural magnificence of the bush setting that reveals large areas of wetlands, hundreds of mature grass trees some dating back more than 600 years, heathlands, scenic lake with studio and a system of structured walking trails with gates into Greens Bush and the Mornington Peninsula National Park with walking tracks through to Cape Schanck.

Expanses of glazing and seamless access to extensive decking ensures that the house and the bush are interwoven with vibrant views, the changing daylight, sounds of nature and the seasonal variations.

A five bedroom wing is bunkered into nature with beautiful outlooks from every room and includes one bedroom with ensuite, and four bedrooms with easy access to a main bathroom with shower and bath and with a separate toilet.
