The founders of Aussie skin care brand Bali Body have sold their multimillion Victorian home for just under the original asking price.
Laura Foley and David Oosterloo listed their stunning home, located in Mount Martha on Victoria’s Mornington Peninsula, in November with a price guide of $4.8m-$5.2m.
The four bedroom home, named Scala House, changed hands earlier this month for $4.7million.
The Mediterranean-inspired home is located just a stone’s throw from the beach and a boundary wall and subtropical landscaping add an extra layer of privacy.
Created by Wolveridge Architects, the home features a minimalist design and textured materials from around the world.
The well-appointed abode also boasts an open plan kitchen and living space with Patagonian Quartzite stonework.

The airy space leads to a pool and paddle area, complete with an inbuilt spa and outdoor shower.
Set on a single level the home also features a separate primary bedroom ‘wing’ with a walk-in wardrobe and ensuite, while the remaining three bedrooms all feature custom built-in wardrobes.
There’s also an enclosed pool house part of the main residence with bar fridges, adjacent to the pool and spa.
Listing agent Trent Cameron, director of Warlimont & Nutt Real Estate Mt Martha told the Herald Sun the skin care entrepreneurs were happy with the result of the sale, which generated a lot of interest.
‘We had interest in the property from the day it was put online,’ he said.
‘For quality homes in great locations, I find there are still buyers out there… we’re still finding that they’re still purchasing.’
Laura and David founded Bali Body in 2014 after seeing a gap in the market for cruelty-free tanning products for sensitive skin.
Raking in a reported $2million per month in sales, the couple recently inked a $30million deal with Coles that will see their popular products stocked in supermarkets nationwide.

In the early days, the couple invested $30,000 to develop the perfect tanning product before launching into the market.
By leveraging social media and influencers to their advantage, the brand quickly took off.
The products encapsulate the idea of enjoying yourself while on a holiday and coming back all bronzed and tanned.
On the Startup Diaries Podcast, the couple shared how they went from zero to 1.4million Instagram followers, and how they started out.
‘Since launching we’ve posted five times per day for the last eight years on Instagram, and never missed a post. So we’re super consistent in our messaging,’ Laura said.
‘For three years, seven days a week, I’ll be out at 11pm having an espresso and be like.. oh alarm, post. So the dedication is legit.
‘We wanted to be a global brand from the start and we took key influencers from different parts of the world.
‘Those big influencers would post something and you would make a direct ROI (return on investment) because it was still new, whereas now it’s gone through more like micro-influencers.’

For those wanting to follow in their footsteps and take a risk on a business venture, Laura said to prepare yourself.
‘It will likely consume the majority of your life at least for the first five years, ensure you are prepared for that commitment,’ she said.
‘To be successful, you must be willing to sacrifice almost all of your time and energy into driving the business forwards, and ensure you are prepared for failure.
‘Because you will fail in almost everything you do initially but that is how you learn how and where to go next.’
