6-8 Queen Street Mornington

Steeped in history this magnificent heritage home with near-original exterior will inspire even the most discerning of buyers. A former doctor's residence dating back to 1922 'Roma' is sprawled over a rare 1176sqm (approx.) dual-access block in the heart of Mornington boasting mesmerizing bay views and sparkling inground spa pool, a magical retreat from the outside world with distinctive architectural form and detailing.

Beyond the arched porch and double entry doors lie interiors showcasing the impeccable style and craftmanship of yesteryear, a collection of period features including classic wainscoting & panelling, sash windows, original brick chimneys and mantelpieces, custom-built timber joinery and high ceilings.

A tiled entrance foyer with chandelier welcomes you to an elegant, carpeted formal lounge with original brick fireplace, flowing through to a dining room, casual meals area and central timber kitchen with walk-in pantry, Westinghouse dishwasher and Neff appliances. This living zone connects with ease to an inviting veranda overlooking the pool and picture-perfect northwest facing gardens; sit back and enjoy refreshing breezes and warm summer evenings.

For the cooler months retreat to the grand family/entertaining room with built-in bar and ambient gas log fireplace, adorned with traditional finishes and the perfect setting to celebrate life's special occasions or simply warm your toes by the fireplace with a glass of red.

Upstairs three generously proportioned bedrooms and a family bathroom branch off a spacious landing with study nook, the master with walk-in robe, ensuite and private balcony with breathtaking bay views. A large 4th bedroom lies downstairs with walk-in robe and adjacent bathroom with claw foot bath.

Shaded by mature flowering cherry & gum trees the established front gardens are enchanting, while to the rear a large gas heated inground pool with spa enjoys a picturesque setting amongst the roses, fig and citrus trees with a relaxing poolside rotunda.

Extra features include 4 x reverse cycle air conditioners, 1 electric heater, 1 gas log fireplace, a combined laundry/shower room off the kitchen, plentiful storage, greenhouse and veggie boxes, integrated sprinkler system, powered studio and large double garage.

Located just footsteps to cosmopolitan Main Street, the Yacht Club, Mornington pier and beautiful Fisherman's Beach this is a rare opportunity to acquire a tightly held historic property with potential for a future subdivision (STCA).
