About this space
Set on 2.5 elevated acres in the heart of Red Hill South, A Taste of Tuscany is a breathtaking estate where Mediterranean garden elegance meets the natural beauty of the Mornington Peninsula. Overlooking Western Port Bay and designed in collaboration with landscape icon Paul Bangay and architect Russell Casper, this property is purpose-built for refined shoots, styled workshops, and film productions that demand timeless beauty and architectural grounding.
The garden is the undeniable hero of the space. Terraced into the slope, it unfolds into a series of carefully structured outdoor rooms framed by stone-clad walls, traditional farm fencing, and thoughtfully placed banquette seating. At its centre is a brand-new swimming pool surrounded by warm stone and framed by an ironbark pergola, sun loungers, and umbrellas—all ideal for high-end lifestyle content, fashion, or slow, cinematic captures.
Beyond the pool zone, the land opens into a flourishing orchard of 30-year-old fruit trees—including apples, pears, plums, apricots, citrus, and one of the Peninsula’s most impressive fig trees. Rose beds and hydrangea borders bloom toward the north, while to the south, the home opens directly onto the structured Italian garden.
The house itself is modest, comfortable, and character-filled—styled with soft furnishings, collected art, and casual touches that reflect the relaxed luxury of the region. Large windows frame curated views out to the gardens and beyond, providing continuity between indoor and outdoor shooting zones.
As the sun begins to set, the garden comes alive with ambient lighting. Paths and pergolas are softly illuminated, creating a romantic, almost theatrical setting for golden hour portraits, outdoor dining vignettes, or moody evening scenes. The dam, with its ducks and surrounding native plantings, adds another layer of calm and natural movement to this incredibly photogenic property.
From brand shoots and fashion lookbooks to film production and elevated lifestyle content, A Taste of Tuscany offers scale, structure, and soft Mediterranean warmth—all just over an hour from Melbourne.
