5 Warrain Ave, Mornington VIC 3931

High above the coastline, this elevated cliff-top residence occupies 1,982sqm of rare privilege above Mills Beach, within one of the area’s most prestigious and tightly held enclaves. Set within a secluded cul-de-sac, it offers privacy, scale and uninterrupted 180-degree sea views to Port Phillip Bay. Views are expansive and constant, unfolding from the heads of Mornington Harbour through to the distant city skyline. Each level of the home is oriented to the bay, capturing changing light and long sunsets that define daily life here.

Built in the 1950s and later renewed, this solid brick home combines timeless craftsmanship with light-filled living. Vast expanses of glazing and a northerly orientation draw the outdoors in, while polished Tasmanian Oak floors and a stone-clad fireplace anchor the main living with warmth and character. Family and lounge zones flow to a modern kitchen appointed with Ilve cooking appliances and an integrated Miele dishwasher, creating a functional heart for everyday living.

Double doors open to a sweeping north balcony, extending the living spaces outdoors and framing uninterrupted bay vistas. Designed with entertaining in mind, the outdoor spaces provide a seamless environment for hosting, from long lunches on the balcony to sunset evenings overlooking the bay. Downstairs, four robed bedrooms enjoy calming bay outlooks, supported by a fully tiled central bathroom and a cool storage room suited to wine cellar use. Additional features include split-system air conditioning, gas ducted heating and extensive under-house storage with scope for conversion to a rumpus or retreat (STCA).
