Downsizing Without Compromise at Hali

Downsizing is often seen as letting go — of space, of memories, of comfort. But at Hali in Dromana, downsizing is about gaining more. It’s about exchanging maintenance for freedom, wasted space for thoughtful design, and stress for the simple pleasures of beachside living.

One couple told us, “We’d lived in our family home for over 30 years. Moving felt daunting, but the moment we walked into the Hali display, we knew. The design, the light, the views — it felt like a home, not just a townhouse. Now, our future weekends will be about the beach, the markets, and our grandkids.”

Located directly opposite Dromana’s foreshore, Hali places the coast at your doorstep. From morning swims to evening walks past the beach boxes, every day feels like a holiday. Add in the nearby wineries, golf courses and cafés, and you’ve got the best of the Mornington Peninsula lifestyle within minutes.

But what makes Hali truly special is its design. Inspired by the classic 1960s holiday home, the townhouses are reimagined by award-winning architects Cera Stribley for modern living. Expansive glazing frames sweeping ocean views, while open terraces and natural coastal palettes create warmth and calm.

At the heart of the project is the Seaside Commons — a central green designed for connection. Alongside it are a community garden, pocket parks, and spaces to gather or retreat. Downsizing here doesn’t mean losing space; it means gaining a whole community of beautifully landscaped areas.

Sustainability is woven into every element. Each home is all-electric with no gas to site, has rainwater harvesting, and achieves a 7-star energy rating, ensuring a lighter footprint and a healthier way to live.

For those considering a downsize, Hali proves that less truly can mean more — more freedom, more connection, more of the life you’ve been waiting for.
