61 Murray Drive, Point Leo, Vic 3916

Tucked away from the street and idyllically private this special Point Leo home sits quietly within its natural surrounds, set on 4,079sqm of skilfully landscaped native grounds, this property provides exceptional coastal living. The contemporary 4-bedroom, 2.5-bathroom design with two separate living spaces and outstanding entertaining underscores its refined yet naturally relaxed lifestyle, equally suited to entertaining a crowd or settling into quieter coastal living.

A long central hallway brings the home to life over timber floors and a unique ceiling profile that amplifies the natural light, with raked ceilings tracking the full run from the four-bedroom wing through to the open family and dining zone at the rear. The home's designer/builder embraced passive solar design principles, with the orientation, window sizing and cantilevered rooflines carefully considered to maximise natural comfort and energy efficiency, contributing to its impressive 7.4-star energy rating. Interiors by CJH Studio complement the architecture with a refined yet relaxed coastal aesthetic. The generous second living room sits apart with its more contained, cinema-like space, offering additional room for retreat and relaxation. To the rear is a light filled kitchen, dining and living space where an open fireplace anchors life across from the entertainer’s kitchen well-appointed with dual Miele ovens, integrated Smeg and Fisher& Paykel appliances, stone benchtops and quality cabinetry incorporating a bespoke fitted bar.

The twin cathedral ceilings overhead lift the scale of the space, creating architectural drama cantilevering above the alfresco area. Indoor-outdoor living and entertaining flow effortlessly as oversized glazing retracts, extending the profile out over a covered deck complete with outdoor electric heaters, allowing for year-round enjoyment. Eyes are instantly drawn to the inground magnesium swimming pool and spa beyond, a generous deck surround providing the perfect position for summer lazing. Established gums add raw nature and protect privacy on the boundaries, with the central grounds showcasing more refined lawns and gardens providing ample space for backyard cricket or a kick of the footy with an in-ground trampoline and firepit area incorporated in the landscaping. The four bedrooms at the entry hallway include a main suite with a floating vanity and walk-in shower, with bespoke robes fitted to every bedroom around a family bathroom, a separate powder room, and a fitted laundry.

Ducted refrigerated heating and cooling, ceiling fans, bespoke lighting and cabinetry, quality wool carpets, external shades, solar power, a storage shed, an outdoor shower, and Bose speakers round out a detailed specification list. A short walk to the renown beaches and surf breaks of Point Leo, and the Point Leo General Store, the home sits on the Mornington Peninsula’s quieter side, away from the summer crowds, with Point Leo’s wineries, horse-riding trails, and surrounding attractions all within easy reach of this tightly held and rarely available pocket.
