Luxe Mount Martha family home hits market
Steps away from The Pillars and close to South Beach in one of Mount Martha's most prized pockets, sits the architecturally designed residence Haven by Manr.
Designed and delivered by the locally based developer, known for high-end residential projects, the vendor and director of Manr, David Whelan, says their homes 'strengthen the community fabric and put family living at the centre'.
'With Haven by Manr, our vision was to create a sanctuary where Hamptons elegance meets relaxed Peninsula living, a home that feels both luxurious and deeply welcoming from the very first moment,' Whelan says.
Every decision from the pitched roofline to the resort-style outdoor zone was guided by the desire to deliver a timeless family home that will age gracefully and support modern lifestyles with comfort and style.
'Flow and flexibility define the plan,' Whelan says.
'A dramatic entry axis pulls you toward the pool terrace, while multiple living zones allow everyone to gather or retreat as needed.'
Subtly woven into the layout is an attention to daily practicality, featuring a guest suite for visitors, a secluded study for work-from-home days and a seamless connection between the gourmet kitchen, dining area and outdoor space for effortless entertaining.
The home also blends luxury and liveability through its design, style and execution.
'That philosophy translates into dramatic gestures like the double height foyer and poolside glazing, paired with thoughtful comforts: generous storage, layered lighting, functional zoning and natural textures that invite daily use,' Whelan says.
Whelan says that what sets this home apart from other Manr homes is its finer architectural details, such as a curved 4.5m-high skylight in the master ensuite shower, which allows soft natural light to flow into the space.
'Inside and out, natural stone elements add richness and depth, while a built-in brick fireplace anchors the alfresco zone with warmth and timeless character.'
The home also maximises the natural landscape and environment, providing privacy, walkability and a Peninsula lifestyle. 'Marguerita Ave is quietly prestigious yet moments from Mount Martha village, respected schools, scenic walking tracks, and iconic coastal landmarks,' Whelan says.
Perfect for young families, discerning downsizers, or weekenders, the property has much to offer.
'Future owners will savour long summer days around the pool, effortless gatherings beneath the alfresco ceiling, and quiet winter evenings by the outdoor fire.'
