A new benchmark in luxury coastal living

June 11, 2026 BY

The result of an inspired collaboration between Michael Higgins Building Design and Construct31, this newly completed ‘Vela’ townhouse at 113B The Terrace, Ocean Grove delivers a masterclass in contemporary architecture, fusing sculptural form with refined functionality in a premier inner village setting.

Panoramic ocean views provide a tranquil backdrop to daily life, while three lift-connected levels cater to the most discerning families with four bedrooms including twin main suites, a trio of living zones, entertainer’s kitchen with butler’s pantry, a 450-bottle wine cellar and an internal steam sauna.

 

 

 

North-facing gardens by Kings Landscaping echo the home’s distinct Palm Springs sensibility, with a concrete plunge pool as a sparkling centrepiece.

Every detail has been meticulously curated with floor-to-ceiling glazing, walnut flooring and elegant curved lines bringing a sense of style and refinement to the interiors, while cutting-edge technology and a future-focused approach complete this remarkable home, less than 400m from both the beach and vibrant main street.

Twin Neff ovens, a Bora induction cooktop with downdraft extraction and an integrated dishwasher underpin the entertainer’s dream within the showpiece kitchen, which is refined in its luxury with porcelain benchtops, soft-close 2PAC cabinetry and a butler’s pantry.

 

 

 

Situated on the upper level, full-height windows frame stunning skyline and water views that extend across the Point Lonsdale Lighthouse and the Mornington Peninsula to Cape Schanck. An alfresco balcony invites relaxed sunset soirées, while walnut flooring, Venetian plaster detail and the flicker of an electric log fire add natural warmth and ambience.

Awash in northern light, the main bedroom is privately zoned to the upper level and features elegant curved detail and an ambient built-in fireplace. A walk-in robe is fully fitted with 2PAC joinery and porcelain benchtops, which extend to the twin vanity en suite with skylit step-in shower, heated towel rail and full-height feature tiling.

 

 

A ground floor retreat with kitchenette is ideal as a pool room or home gym, with full-width glazing extending to the north-facing backyard. On the mid-level, a theatre room underpins the home’s family functionality, offering versatility for a spacious fifth bedroom if required.

Outside, fully landscaped gardens by Kings Landscaping stretch across the 407sqm allotment, with a 3.5m self-cleaning plunge pool with 12kW heat pump serving as the sparkling centrepiece to the north-facing backyard. An automated irrigation system enables lock-and-leave ease, complemented by a 5000L water tank.

 

 

 

Every detail has been carefully curated for a lifestyle of luxury and comfort, including a 450-bottle wine cellar, a four-person traditional steam sauna, commercial-grade Daikin reverse-cycle refrigerated heating and cooling (fully zoned with wi-fi connectivity), walnut flooring, 100 per cent wool carpets, 6.7kW solar system, low-E Argon-filled double-glazing, alarm system, motorised blinds with recessed linen sheers, upstairs powder room and a four-person internal lift to glide between levels.

It’s an easy, level 350m walk to the Ocean Grove main street with its boutique shops, lively cafes and restaurants, and daily essentials, while a 400m stroll places you on the town’s celebrated coastline, with its expansive surf beaches and breathtaking coastal scenery.
