As daylight hours shorten and summer fades into memory, many assume it’s time to retreat indoors. However, in Melbourne and on the Mornington Peninsula, exceptional homes demonstrate that outdoor entertaining is not just for warm-weather months. With the right combination of spatial planning and climate-smart features, alfresco living transforms into a year-round experience.

Think covered terraces featuring built-in heating, outdoor kitchens designed for every season, and seamless indoor-outdoor flow that enables effortless entertaining come rain or shine. These purpose-built spaces invite moments of connection, comfort, and celebration, regardless of the season.

In this edition of our Signature Spaces series, we explore homes that take outdoor entertaining to the next level. From secluded garden pavilions to rooftop retreats with panoramic bay views, these properties are redefining what it means to gather outside.
