2 Henry Court, McCrae, Vic 3938

Celebrating glorious Bay panoramas from Port Phillip Heads to the Melbourne city skyline, this character-rich, four-bedroom McCrae family home utterly captivates with its expansive, elevated indoor/outdoor living and entertaining zone where the ever-changing backdrop showcases epic sunsets, passing cruise liners, and approaching storms.

Blissfully renovated, while retaining its original charm and character, the weatherboard home and glorious private gardens on an 829-square-metre* block have been cherished by the same family for more than a generation.

Set over two levels, the incredible views are immediately apparent upon entry to the home’s open-plan living and dining area, designed for impressive entertaining with a gourmet stone kitchen featuring a 900mm Blanco freestanding gas cooker. The custom-designed mobile island bench/breakfast bar can be effortlessly moved to act as a servery or bar during parties and gatherings. Polished Tassie Oak flooring flows through the expansive living zone and a wood fire heater adds a cosy ambience during the cooler months, while sliding stacker glass doors open up the full width to the broad undercover alfresco deck which is fitted with a ceiling fan, and is gas and water plumbed.

Wake up to the magnificent water views from the main bedroom with built-in robes, which is also on the entry level along with a second bedroom, a study, main bathroom and powder room. Custom designed for zoned family living or guest hosting, the renovated lower level domain comprises two bedrooms, a living/rumpus room (or additional bedroom), and a bathroom/laundry. There is additional under-house entertaining space, perfect for table-tennis and barbecues, as well as plenty of storage including understair wine storage and drinks fridge space, and under-house storage. Additional features include plantation shutters, quality wool loop pile carpet, ducted heating and cooling, a double carport plus plenty of off-street parking.

Cocooned in a lush border of greenery, the glorious native-inspired established low-maintenance gardens are a private oasis of verdant tranquillity, frequented by friendly kookaburras and parrots, and include an expansive lawn area, fish pond, gazebo, veggie patch, and citrus fruit trees.

Positioned in a tranquil, elevated street, an easy stroll via a walking track and steps down to the beach and McCrae Plaza shops (approximately 500 metres), this property is perfectly positioned for holiday guest hosting with easy freeway access, close proximity to Arthur’s Seat, and central to a host of the Peninsula’s world-class beaches, wineries, and golf courses.
