Looking for your next home in Victoria? We’ve got you covered.

19 Century Drive, Mount Martha

Up behind Mount Martha’s pastel-pretty beach and its neat, buzzy shopping strip, the hinterland hosts some pretty expansive, well-appointed spreads.

This one at 19 Century Drive certainly ups the amenity ante with a long list of luxe inclusions, but it’s smart as well as stylish, with a floor plan that ticks that sought-after multigenerational box among many others.

“Architecturally it’s incredible,” says Marshall White’s Chelsey Gibson. “It’s got that wow-factor – big windows, natural light pouring through, spectacular soaring ceilings. There’s a wonderful outlook from every room.”

Then there’s the splendid elemental feel of the materials that sits particularly well in this green environment.

Rammed-earth walls aside the characterful charcoal timbers are inspired bedfellows that provide a rough-hewn contrast to the sleek interiors.

We adore the outdoor entertainment area too – a handsome spread of space surrounding the superb pool and spa.

The adjacent pavilion accommodates a games room, bar and brilliant bunk room. A little further afield is a full-sized tennis court.

“It’s a real coast meets country feel here,” Gibson says. “Equestrian paddocks as a backdrop and just a few minutes drive to the beach.”

The private sale has a guide of $7.5 million to $8.2 million.

380 Mt Eirene Road, Gembrook

Turnkey has never been so complete as at this four-hectare bushland property, where the purchase of the main house and three mini-me cottages includes all fittings, fixtures and furnishings.

The cottages suit multigenerational living or short-term rental.

9 Kildrummie Court, Sorrento

Occupying a coveted clifftop waterfront position, Laguna makes the most of forever views to the north-east. “It is a very clever design,” the agent says. “Aspirational buyers on the peninsula know this is special.” The property, a holiday retreat for former Melbourne lord mayor Ron Walker’s family for 40 years, has separate guest quarters and a glazed facade, broad beachfront terraces and inclinator access to the shallows.

3 Morrice Street, Caulfield North

Push back the glass sliders from the rear corner of this sophisticated abode’s casual living zone to luxuriate in a finessed entertainment space of poolside terrace and al fresco dining. The builder’s-own residence is layered with meticulous luxury and detail. Special mention goes to the curvaceous void above the dining area, showstopper Gaggenau kitchen, custom pendants, and LED strip lighting.

4B Regent Street, Brighton East

This executive townhouse has a seamless floor plan of practical living spaces, with bespoke inclusions and touches of luxe. No space is wasted where a side deck, a pantry, shelving or a desk will fit, yet it feels spacious and open. The private rear courtyard has a barbecue kitchen on a Vergola-roofed terrace, built-in seating and a water feature.

4 Colvin Grove, Hawthorn

The picket fence and “quintessential Victorian facade” disguise surprises within this cul-de-sac cottage, the agent says. Start with its summer bonus – an 18-metre heated lap pool that runs alongside the open-plan living area. “It’s a unique asset on a property of 213 square metres,” he says. The architectural renovation includes sliding-door flexibility to bedrooms, travertine bathrooms and “timeless natural elements”.

3/122 Roseneath Street, Clifton Hill

Creating a village-style community for high-density happiness was a key factor of this 2018-built development in the Dights Falls area of the inner north. Fieldworks’ design process included inviting prospective buyers to vote on communal facilities while emphasising sustainability, quality and timeless finishes. This townhouse has a pocket courtyard and ground-floor living zone, with two bedrooms above and one below.

16a Kinane Street, Brighton

“It’s a premier street for being a cul-de-sac and a short walk to the beach,” says the agent selling this graceful new residence at the rear of a subdivided block. A range of buyers are attracted to its family size and lock-and-leave capability. The facade has the lovely aesthetics of a traditional weatherboard home, while the contemporary interior is easy-living.

583 Lauriston Reservoir Road, Lauriston

You can imagine you’re on an island at this stately house on 13 hectares overlooking Lauriston Reservoir near Kyneton.

Decorated ceilings by Peter Zagaris and trompe l’oeil works by Mary Larnach Jones set it apart. “It manages to be grand yet homely,” the agent says.

771 Arthurs Seat Road, Arthurs Seat

Spectacular views of the bay with Melbourne in the distance steal the show in this home near the peak.

Close to beaches and Red Hill. “It’s well designed for practical living,” the agent says.
