Menarock Life Beaconsfield Upper, Salisbury House is a beautiful mixture of the old and new. Its façade is heritage listed from its original beginnings as a Country Guest House for the residents of Melbourne, hosting travelers from interstate and overseas and indeed for a time used by servicemen during World War 2 whilst on leave.  Originally established in 1888, guests could play tennis (now the site of the new extension) or play croquet on the front lawn and where our residents can still do this today!

Our original building whilst renovated, still incorporates many ornate fixtures and arches of a bygone era, to pay respect to a time that is so well known by our residents and attracts many of the local members within our community.

Our new state of the art extension has 30 single individually climate controlled bedrooms, several lounge and dining areas, balconies with seating areas to enjoy the magnificent views, extending from Arthurs Seat on the Mornington Peninsula to Western Port Bay, French Island and all places in between. This extension has been appointed with luxury features and interior designed décor.

The most significant feature of this new extension is that the bushfire refuge.  It has been incorporated into this extension, capable of holding some 120 plus people should a significant fire event occur.  Our fire sprinkler pump and fire sprinklers, has been constructed from fire retardant materials, cevalar fire curtains and metal shutters, dedicated diesel power generator, and many other features will keep our residents, guests and staff protected. A key feature when considering residing within the hills.
