"One of the rarest finds on the Mornington Peninsula": Inside Hali Dromana
It's all about location at Samuel's newest residential development, Hali Dromana.
Hali Dromana, 70 low-maintenance townhouses designed by renowned Melbourne architect Cera Stribley, are set to rise directly across the road from one of the best beaches on the Mornington Peninsula.
We recently visited Dromana and the display suite for Hali, down the street from the near two-hectare Point Nepean Road site that Samuel secured several years ago because of its unrepeatable nature.
Darren Blair, Director of Blair Property Group, walked us through what makes Hali one of the most exciting new offerings on Victoria’s coastline.
“Hali enjoys a rare uninterrupted outlook to the beach that can never be built out—just steps from the shoreline, which stretches for three kilometres before merging seamlessly with Safety Beach,” Blair says.
The project offers quick access to the nearby village centre, where residents will find cafes, boutique retailers, and casual dining—all within walking distance.
Designed by Cera Stribley, Hali draws inspiration from the classic 1960s Australian beach house while delivering all the comforts and style expected of a contemporary home.
“Their approach was to take the charm of a classic 1960s Aussie beach house and reimagine it for modern living,” Blair says. “It’s a clean, contemporary design that still feels warm, familiar, and perfectly suited to beachside living.”
Hali offers a range of two, three, and four-bedroom townhouses, each designed to maximise natural light and embrace its coastal surroundings. Interiors feature a neutral beach-inspired palette, with large windows and open-plan living that flows effortlessly to outdoor spaces.
Around a quarter of the large site has been reserved for open green space, with the homes being well set back from the street, creating a mini-community only footsteps from the sand.
Each home has been designed with sustainability front of mind. All residences will boast a 7-star energy rating, are gas-free, and EV charge-ready, ensuring comfort and efficiency for years to come.
“It’s the kind of place that just feels right by the coast,” Blair says. “A relaxed, low-maintenance home designed for easy, everyday living.”
