‘Brecon’, c. 1934, 60-62 Canadian Bay Road, Mount Eliza VIC 3930

A storied c. 1934 icon, ‘Brecon’ commands a prominent Ranelagh Estate position, masterfully reinterpreting its Arts and Crafts heritage through a flawlessly executed architectural extension that aligns with its traditional framework.

Original stonework and a gambrel roofline introduce interiors with board-and-batten wainscotting, engineered timber floors and timeless charm. Formal and informal living zones gather around a central dining space, unfolding through sets of doors to outdoor entertaining spaces that encircle the pool and in-ground spa. An impressive kitchen with a classic cast iron AGA stove, Miele appliances, butler’s pantry and stone benchtops links with a private courtyard with a pizza oven, calibrated for large-scale gatherings.

With a layout comprising four bedrooms and three bathrooms (including a powder room), this design is expertly suited for families or grand entertaining with overnight visitors. The master suite, boasting a north-facing balcony, enhances the experience by maximising the beautiful bay views, while two lower-level bedrooms each feature private ensuites. A fire pit area, established vegetable garden, green house, and a shared resident-owned rear reserve complete the impressive recreation ensemble.

Featuring a comprehensive line-up of features, the 1,672sqm (approx.) dual title allotment includes an external dry stone fireplace, workshop, electric panel heating, split-system air conditioning, ceiling fans, and off-street parking for multiple cars. Enjoy a leisurely stroll to Mount Eliza Village, Canadian Bay Beach, and the Ranelagh Club.
