Here’s a el cheapo ESP32 solution to extend the Ble range, by Adrian Rockall.  
According to the description, it should be able to discover beacons as well.  
Else just drop Adrian a note!

I think that’s not possible. It’s either in range, or it’s out of range.  
So ‘extending’ the Ble signal, which covers the property, is the way to go imho.
