About the home
“Killara Retreat” is a delightful single-storey family home in central Cowes just a short walk from the beach and supermarkets, restaurants & cafés of Cowes. Some of the many features of this lovely home are detailed below:
Indoor Areas
The front open plan Kitchen/Dining/Living Room (with 65" smart TV) flows through to a Lounge (with 65" smart TV). A central hallway leads to Bedroom 1 featuring a WIR and ensuite (with shower & toilet), a fully equipped Laundry (with washing machine & clothes dryer), a separate Toilet, Bedrooms 2 and 3 (each with BIR) and another Bathroom (with bath & shower).
Outdoor Areas
The front Deck (with seating for 4) overlooks the quiet cul-de-sac in central Cowes, while the side Deck overlooks the enlcosed rear yard with a separate covered Gazebo (with gas BBQ & seating for 6) - perfect and suitable for children to play safely. There is space for 2 cars in the Double Carport, with space for another 2 vehicles (cars and/or a boat) in the driveway.
Kitchen
The fully appointed kitchen is equipped with cooking utensils, crockery, cutlery, microwave, DeLonghi Nespresso Mini pod coffee machine, toaster, kettle, etc. plus a double sink, fridge, dishwasher, electric oven and gas cook top.

Bedroom 1: One Queen bed

Linen
It is common in the region for some linen to be provided for bookings, and some linen to be available as an optional extra.

What is included are doonas (quilts) with covers, pillows without covers, tea towels, hand towels and bathmats. If you would like the optional linen included in your booking, please let us know, including which beds you would like it provided for.
