162 Bungower Road Somerville VIC 3912

Basking in the afterglow of a spectacular total renovation executed in harmony with the original character of the home, this six-bedroom residence unites oversized dimensions with resort-style ambience to create a lifestyle-lover’s dream.

Beyond an electronic gate on 1.2 acre (approx) with mature boundary trees, the property is wonderfully self-sustaining with a huge vegetable garden, fresh herbs, a small fruit orchard, chook run, water tank and 5kW solar panels to keep the energy bills minimal.

Fully upgraded and configured to comprise five living zones with multiple sets of sliding glass doors uniting indoors and out, the residence is defined by high-quality fixtures and finishes, from the solid jarrah flooring and premium high-density carpeting to the contemporary bathrooms with floating stone vanities, frameless glass rainshowers and heated towel rails.

An epicurean kitchen is anchored by a colossal stone island and impresses at every turn with all-Bosch dual ovens, a boosted induction cooktop and dishwasher, a DeLonghi wok gas burner, Chambord farmhouse sink, imported Italian brass tapware and hardware, imported English pendant lighting, a butler’s pantry and a larder.

Banks of bifold windows glide open to a deluxe poolside entertaining area with a vast covered alfresco deck with Polito Raffaello five-pizza wood oven to relax and dine outdoors with friends before slipping into the MagnaPool mineral swimming pool for a few leisurely laps in always-balmy magnesium waters connected to it's own solar system.

With a home theatre, library reading room, interconnected lounge and dining areas with a roaring two-way log burner, every mood and occasion is catered to across a sprawling and sun-filled north-facing design, while parents will relish their own retreat / gym / office opening to the front deck off the spacious master bedroom with fitted dressing room and a dual-shower ensuite.

In the eastern wing of the residence, overnight guests or live-in in-laws will be very comfortably accommodated in the self-contained wing with two rooms, a kitchenette / laundry, two ensuites and external access.

Located on the edge of town moments to a choice of schools, Somerville Central, the train station, restaurants and takeaways, the property comes with a built-in study nook, three. ensuites, a family bathroom, a mud room with powder room, double garage and so much more.
