Knight Frank has been instructed to handle the sale of a one–off, iconic property situated on the exclusive Mornington Peninsula; the holiday playground of the super wealthy. The sale of this unique architect designed property presents a rare opportunity to buy a significant estate in Merricks, where such properties very rarely come to market.
Completed in 2007, after four years of planning and construction, Cunana, which is on the market in excess of AUD$12million, sits on one of the highest points in the area, affording breath-taking views from all directions. It was designed by award-winning architect Alfred de Bruyne of SJB Architects; with SJB Interiors completing the interior design.
The Mornington Peninsula is often likened to being “The Hamptons of The Southern Hemisphere” because of its reputation as the ultimate holiday enclave for the world’s moneyed elite. The area benefits from beautiful weather, a relatively sheltered location, world-renowned boutique wineries with great restaurants, gourmet shops, championship golf courses, stunning walking trails over undulating hills, surf beaches and equestrian facilities.
Tom Ormerod, Knight Frank: “Properties on the Mornington Peninsula are the most sought after trophy homes in Australia, or even the Asia Pacific Region. They rarely go on sale, indeed, the last property sold here was over five years ago. There is no comparable house anywhere on the Peninsula - it provides 14,000 sq ft of luxury living at its finest in a peaceful beach location less than an hour’s drive from Melbourne CBD.”
The property sleeps 14 people, including a master-suite with dressing room and two self–contained apartments which would be suitable for families, long term guests or live-in staff. The house sits in 27 acres of land on one of the highest points of the peninsula and includes 5 acres of stunning matured landscaped gardens, orchards and a vegetable garden thus allowing the owners to eat from the land.
Cunana is on the market for offers in excess of AUD$12million through Knight Frank Melbourne Office:
