Grab your board, kids and dog for the 5-minute walk to the beach

When it comes to wonderful surprises it is not only about the surf breaks at dog friendly Castaways Beach and the 5-minute walk to toes-in-the-white sand but knowing the stunning location is in a prestigious residential enclave.

Surrounded by lush subtropical gardens featuring palms and pandanus, the contemporary beach house aesthetic begins at the front door with a light filled, cool white entryway,oozing sassy style. Maybe it is also about fun and fabulosity with friends, as Love Shack, the name above the door suggests.

Whether keen entertainers, beach lovers or being totally family focused, the multiple living areas, both indoors and out, facilitate a plethora of gathering spots. Upstairs with exquisite polished blackbutt timber floors is relaxed, beachy, timeless in design yet totally chic without being pretentious.

Thanks to ‘disappearing’ doors, the sizeable open plan living and dining spaces coalesce with the terrace, which runs the entire width of the residence on the south and east sides also partially on the north side. Whatever the reason or the season there is a perfect space with a verdant outlook for everyone.

The central hub is a custom-designed galley kitchen with white stone-topped, grey gloss cabinetry, glass and stainless steel-fronted upper cabinetry, wide island preparation bench plus high-end appliances. A breakfast bar on the terrace off the kitchen and dining space looks over the pool.

Three large bedrooms on this level have sheer window treatments and share a family bathroom with two-tones of grey tiles, a square stone bath, complemented by two square vanity basins, plus there is a walk-in shower.

Downstairs a generous living area offers functionality and versatility with doors opening to a sandstone-tiled terrace which has access to the side entry way, as well as a sun terrace on the pool side. Guests would no doubt love the queen-size bedroom with built-in robes and an on-trend ensuite as well the privacy.

The kid-friendly rear garden, with tropical plants, shimmering pool and sandstone coping, maintenance-free ‘grass’, a trampoline, custom deck with seating around the fire pit or top with stone for a summer table, is totally dedicated to the good times. Just in case, in a shady corner is yet another entertaining option.

“Surrounded by pristine beaches and national parks, this is the quintessential coastal-style family home or investment property that embodies smart design, attention to detail, and practicality,” comment Tom Offermann Real Estate agents Tracy Russell and Roark Walsh who are taking the property to auction on Saturday 24 September 2022. “Whether keen entertainers, beach lovers, surfers, walkers, cyclists, family and business focused, or all the aforementioned, the multiple living areas, both indoors and out, keep on giving whilst facilitating a multiplicity of ideas including relaxation.”
