Perfectly positioned to experience the best of the Mornington Peninsula, this classic coastal retreat comfortably hosts families and groups with a spacious 3-bedroom home plus a separate 2-bedroom self-contained cottage.

The space
Nestled among native surrounds and wrapped in the quiet beauty of the coast, this spacious retreat is designed for slow mornings, crackling fires, and complete winter rejuvenation.

Rich ironbark floors, soaring 10ft ceilings, and elegant double-hung windows create a warm and welcoming atmosphere throughout the open family, dining, and kitchen spaces.

At the heart of the home, the beautifully appointed kitchen invites long lunches and cosy evenings in, featuring premium appliances, stone benchtops, soft-close cabinetry, and a generous walk-in pantry.

As the cooler months settle in, light the open fireplace, pour a glass of wine, and unwind while birdsong drifts through the French doors from the surrounding native gardens.

Outside, an enchanting alfresco setting offers countless spaces to restore and reconnect — from the covered terrace perfect for winter breakfasts wrapped in blankets, to secluded nooks ideal for an afternoon book or quiet conversation beside the fire pit under the stars.

The master suite is a private sanctuary of comfort and calm, complete with an open fireplace, bevelled-glass French doors, a luxurious twin-vanity en-suite, and a separate study with WiFi for those seeking a peaceful work-from-anywhere escape.

Two additional bedrooms are thoughtfully zoned away from the main living areas, alongside a family bathroom, powder room, and laundry.

A freestanding self-contained cottage offers even more flexibility for families or friends travelling together, featuring a master bedroom, bunk room, fully equipped kitchen, bathroom, and relaxed living and dining area.

Just a short stroll away, the calm shores of Tootgarook Bay offer a peaceful winter escape, perfect for brisk morning walks along the coastline, collecting shells with the children, or watching soft sunsets roll across the water wrapped in a warm coat and coffee in hand.

Only 150 metres from your door, the much-loved local favourite, The Kitchen café, becomes your cosy neighbourhood retreat for barista-made coffee, slow brunches, or a relaxed lunch beside the bay — all without needing to get in the car.

Whether you’re escaping for a romantic winter weekend, a restorative family gathering, or a peaceful coastal reset, every detail has been thoughtfully considered to make your stay effortless and memorable.

Neighbourhood highlights

Tootgarook, situated on the beautiful Mornington Peninsula, is a relaxed coastal community nestled between Rosebud and Rye. It offers a tranquil beachside escape with coastal walks among lush, natural beauty.

Our home in Tootgarook is only a short drive to the Peninsula Hot Springs and Alba Thermal Springs (7mins), Gunnamatta surf beach (10mins), some of the best golf courses in Australia, award winning wineries, breweries and restaurants, Sorrento (15mins), Red Hill (15mins) and Point Nepean National Park (25 mins).

This is a quiet and slow paced coastal neighbourhood, so large noisy parties are not well received by the neighbours.
