47 Legacy Drive, Mount Martha, Vic 3934

Magnificently set on three-quarters of an acre, just 10 minute’s stroll to the sand, this modernist-inspired contemporary coastal home celebrates spacious, light-filled and relaxed indoor/outdoor family living and entertaining with breathtaking upper level views over the oasis-like gardens, the resort style swimming pool and cabana, the neighbouring bushland reserve, and the waters of Port Phillip Bay.

Privately set behind a secure automatic driveway gate, the idyllic modern coastal gardens have been impeccably designed and laid out featuring a meandering rock-lined dry creek bed, edged with succulents and natives, and spanned with a rustic footbridge. Architecturally striking, with a ‘butterfly’ roofline, the five-bedroom double storey home has a highly considered floorplan and custom fit-out, with adaptive functionality incorporated into the design to suit large or multi-generational family living.

Oriented towards the north west, the upper level open plan living zone is edged by wraparound balconies accessed via glass sliding/stacker doors. Wide format hardwood flooring, a gas log fire heater, and built-in bespoke joinery including a study nook and a day bed with storage, add to the rich character. A large stone island bench, with Franke sink and filtered water tap, introduces the gourmet kitchen which is well equipped with dual Miele multi-function ovens, a Miele induction cooktop and an Asko dishwasher, while a walk-in preparation pantry and concealed wet bar above a pair of Vintec wine fridges all add to the effortless entertaining amenity.

Also with water views, the main bedroom has fitted built-in robes and an open double-vanity ensuite with a deep, built-in bath and walk-in shower. The lower level comprises four bedrooms, all with lovely garden outlooks and customised built-in robes, the main bathroom, a powder room and a large living area/rumpus room. There is a large wraparound undercover alfresco zone on the lower level which connects from the rumpus room to the ‘Sahara’ sandstone-edged pool and open cabana.


Additional highlights include a sound-proofed media room/home cinema on the upper level, plus one of the lower level bedrooms also has sound-proofing for use as a music room or home office, powder rooms on each level, an under stair wine storage room, and a large custom-fitted laundry with drying racks and external access.

The oversized 2.5 car garage has an abundance of built-in custom storage, a workbench, and bike and board storage. There is a side driveway and off-street parking for multiple vehicles, an outdoor hot/cold shower, a hen house, and a sprawling, level, rear lawn big enough for a tennis court, or a serious game of backyard cricket. Beyond the lawn is a vine-draped arbour that leads to lush garden beds, fruit trees, a firepit area, and pathways that wrap around the entire property which is bordered by a tranquil bushland gully.

This blue chip, community and family focussed Mount Martha address, is neighboured by the Hearn Creek Reserve, Mount Martha Eco Park and Mount Martha Primary School, and it is an easy walk to the Village and South Beach.
