This is truly an individual ‘one off’ highset beach house over three levels, with a secluded end of cul-de-sac location, only two other properties and no passing traffic. Not overlooked, it is a hidden ‘retreat’ in the true sense of the word! The advantage of this ideally positioned property really comes into play, when you take an easy walk via the private and shaded path to the open beach, waiting literally just three minutes from the front door.

At 804m and a vast 25m frontage, which widens to 32.7m at the rear, this amazing home with its big natural garden provides the perfect setting and attracts all the local beautiful birdlife. The native flora of banksias, tree ferns and large palms are complemented with under-plantings of Pandanus trees, and with not a blade of grass in sight, only adds to the easy non-mowing low maintenance of these impressive irrigated gardens.

This versatile property provides everything you could wish for in a family home or private weekend retreat. Two families could easily live independently in this home, both enjoying separate accesses. The downstairs annex could also provide a good source of income as either holiday accommodation or a permanently let tenancy. Truly a house with many imaginable configurations and simple to alter.

A concrete driveway and side aprons lead to the two-car lock up garage, with a couple of easily utilised spots for the tinny and visitor parking. There is also a huge under house storage area for all the surfboards, kayaks and those beach toys! This area could be developed to provide even further internal living space.

Built in concrete block over two floors, this is one very solid home. The upper floor has a combination of large sliding doors on all sides, allowing for great cross ventilation throughout, and interspaced with timber fascias.

The first level up from the garages is quite an extraordinary use of the internal space. First, it is home to an impressive 13m ionised indoor lap pool with glassed walls inviting a peaceful green outlook, a magnificent leaf free water feature to enjoy every day of the year. The solar heating ensures to the all year round use of the pool.

This level offers the option of a fully self-contained apartment with its own separate entry comprising a well equipped kitchenette, bedroom/lounge with private ‘en suite’, walk in robe, reverse cycle air-conditioning and ceiling fan. There is additional access to a further two sizable double bedrooms and second large bathroom with laundry facilities, enhanced by wide verandas to open the lower house also to the coastal ocean breezes.

The remaining space is taken up with a modern family lounge/media space, also acting as the entrance foyer to the main home, not forgetting to mention the massive 36m of underground fresh rainwater storage tanks, which adds to the real eco-friendliness of this property, as well as reducing the water costs.

Head up top and the layout is one of minimal internal walls, with a mix of terra cotta and white tiled flooring and an island-styled kitchen. This huge open plan living area incorporates the master bedroom (of lounge room size proportions), with its walk through ‘en suite’ and immense walk-in robe, lounge, dining and a study / office / 4th bedroom space, all of which open out to vast wrap around verandas, hovering in the tree tops. The gourmet kitchen naturally flows to wide under cover entertainment decks, and provides the perfect spacious exterior dining setting. The high cathedral ceilings throughout enhance the feeling of space and light, capturing all those gentle coastal sea breezes. There is also reverse cycle air-conditioning and ample ceiling fans to help with air movement on those rare balmy days.

Owner is extremely serious about selling and will meet the market demands. An early inspection is highly recommended. This home will not fail to impress that buyer looking for a private retreat just moments from an unspoilt open beach, yet close enough to walk to all the local shops, restaurants, bars, main schools, sports facilities and, if preferred, the patrolled local beach and Surf Life Saving Club.
