Good to know

From the moment you arrive, you’ll feel the sense of space and privacy. Set on a fully fenced block with off-street parking, Moonbay offers a peaceful escape while remaining close to everything. Inside, the home has been thoughtfully reimagined with fresh interiors, brand new furnishings and a light-filled open-plan design that brings everyone together. The heart of the home is the expansive kitchen, dining and living area, where walls have been opened to create seamless flow and connection. Morning coffee at the island bench turns into long lunches, sunset grazing platters and relaxed evenings on the couch with a glass of local wine. Every detail has been designed to feel welcoming, stylish and comfortable. Step outside and the holiday lifestyle truly begins. Host summer BBQs in the private backyard, dine alfresco under the open sky, or gather around the fire pit as the sun sets and the coastal air cools. The secure yard makes it easy for families to relax, while couples and friends will love the space to unwind in complete privacy. Moonbay comfortably accommodates families and groups across four generous bedrooms and two bathrooms. The kitchen is fully equipped with an oven, dishwasher, fridge, microwave, slow cooker, air fryer and coffee machine, making entertaining effortless. Wi-Fi, a smart TV with Netflix, books and games for adults and children, blackout blinds for restful sleep, a washing machine and dryer, and a spacious main bathroom with bathtub ensure every stay feels easy and considered. Beyond the front door, the best of the Mornington Peninsula awaits. Spend your mornings swimming in crystal-clear waters, your afternoons exploring coastal trails or boutique wineries, and your evenings dining at local cafés and restaurants just minutes away. The Peninsula Hot Springs, championship golf courses and scenic lookouts are all within easy reach. Moonbay in Rye isn’t just a holiday house. It’s a place to reconnect, to celebrate, to rest and to create lasting memories by the sea. The house is in a residential street with surrounding permanent tenants so we only rent to mature guests that will remain respectful to our neighbours. The house is to be used for relaxation-style holidaying, loud parties are prohibited.
