Awash in history and seaside charm in the most desirable beachside location, ‘Fleurbaix’ is an adorably modernised fisherman’s cottage with self-contained guest house set amid fruit trees and vegetable gardens on 832m2 (approx). Positioned behind electronic gated entry, the weatherboard home has been updated in sympathetic accord with the original character and is footsteps to Tideways Beach/ Sullivans Bay, voted among the top beaches in Australia. The modernised home features two light-filled living zones, a cook’s kitchen with stone benchtops, Electrolux Chef oven, stainless-steel Electrolux Dishlex dishwasher, gas cooktop, slide-out pantry, butler’s pantry-come-laundry room and freestanding marble island. French doors with plantation shutters open off the formal dining room to a vast alfresco deck overlooking the gardens, providing the most glorious setting for alfresco dining. The perfect complement for those who work remotely, artists, writers, musicians or overnight guests, the self-contained guest cottage, ‘Colonsay’ (named after an island in Scotland), boasts a spacious studio bedroom/living area and contemporary ensuite, which could also be offered as a rental or short-stay property. The two bedrooms in the main house are serviced by a second modern bathroom with floating vanity and frameless shower. Plantation shutters, gas fireplace, split-system air conditioning, ducted heating, spacious entry foyer/study, weatherboard garden shed and carport are among the inclusions. In close proximity to Sorrento’s bustling Ocean Beach Road, Blairgowrie shops, yachting facilities, golf courses, hot springs, wineries, day spas and surf beaches. This blue-chip site would also lend itself superbly to a brand-new residence (STCA) in one of the Mornington Peninsula’s most exclusive locations.
