Ross Noble, the renowned comedian and actor, is putting his Mornington Peninsula home up for sale as he prepares to relocate to England with his wife, Fran. The couple's decision to move comes amidst Noble's globetrotting career, which frequently sees him travel between his birth country and Australia for shows. The home, located on a 4180sq m plot, is a character-filled, six-bedroom, six-bathroom residence with a range of unique features. It boasts a games room, a tennis court, a pool, and a kitchen with a pantry door from India. The home's interior is a fusion of French and English styles, with antique furnishings, wallpaper sourced from England and France, and textile additions by Ms Noble herself. The property's appeal lies in its privacy, proximity to sought-after schools, and the peaceful atmosphere of the neighborhood. Ms Noble highlights the home's ability to provide a sense of seclusion, yet still be within five minutes of shops, eateries, and the kids' school. The family has renovated the home to suit their needs, incorporating a cozy fireplace and a main bathtub dating back to 1800s France. The gardens, designed by a prior owner, are a blend of French and English styles and are so productive that the Nobles rarely need to buy flowers. Ms Noble, a textile designer, has added her own touch with pillows and soft furnishings. The home's games room has hosted a long list of comedians during the Melbourne Comedy Festival. The sale of the home is being handled by Homes & Acreage's Candice Blanch, who emphasizes the quality and character of the property in a market dominated by modern residences. The asking price is $3.3m-$3.6m, and Ms Blanch anticipates buyers will be families seeking a lifestyle change. The Nobles will be returning to Australia regularly for Ross's work and family catch-ups, as they plan to move back when they retire.
