Description

Bay View is a fully furnished holiday home situated in the heart of the Bayside on Cleveland Point with the ocean to the front and rear of the property giving breathtaking views across to Stradbroke Island.

This renovated Queenslander home allows you to experience real Bayside living with the cooling sea breezes, fantastic sunsets and the best that waterside living delivers. Suitable for those on holiday and for those relocating to the area.

Overview

This refurbished (Nov 2007) Queenslander beach house offers a great holiday experience and is the perfect setting for your relaxing getaway. Being on a peninsula the back yard backs onto the waters of Moreton Bay overlooking Raby Bay and Ormiston and the front looks out over the water to Stradbroke Island.

The 3 bedroomed home will comfortably sleep 6 people in 2x Queen beds and 2x single beds. A full bed linen service is provided including sheets, doonas, pillows. Bath towels are also provided. Guests are asked to bring their own beach towels - these can be provided for an additional charge if preferred. One of the Queen bedrooms has a good sized annexe room. This room contains two wardrobes and plenty of extra room for storage or, for families with a baby, to have the travel cot. Each bedroom has a radio alarm clock. In the cooler months blankets are available and all beds have new fitted electric blankets.

The main lounge with TV, DVD player and VCR is towards the rear of the property and has reverse cycle air conditioning for cooling/heating. At the rear of the house overlooking the Bay and garden is the dining area and fully self-contained modern kitchen with all new appliances.

The kitchen has a dishwasher, microwave, single oven and electric hob, plenty of cutlery, plates and glasses, steamer, mixer, toaster, kettle, etc. There is also a washing machine and dryer, iron and ironing board for your convenience. A high-chair and travel cot can be provided if requested. The modern bathroom offers both a shower and a bath.

At the front of the house is another sitting area. For the early birds have your morning coffee here whilst you watch the sun rise over Stradbroke Island. A selection of games and books is also provided for your enjoyment.

Sit back and relax on the back verandah taking in the spectacular sunsets and spot any passing dolphins. With a BBQ provided this outdoor setting is ideal for entertaining. When the tide is out there remains a small sandy area that can be accessed via a fixed steel ladder. When the tide is in why not cast a line out and see if you can catch dinner!

Please note that children are welcome but this house is located right on the waterfront - the back garden ends at the sea! There is no barrier between the garden and the water - this home may therefore not suit all families.
