Built in 2024, this home has been designed for ultimate calm and serenity. Inviting a state of relaxation, whilst giving your children the space to spread out and enjoy themselves in a child friendly environment.

Throughout the house the walls and ceilings have all been hand-finished with high end limewash paint by Bauwerk - giving the home a warm textured finish, and offering the perfect backdrop to all your indoor holiday moments.

The entire home feature dreamy sheer curtains in a relaxed linen fabric, remote controlled roman blinds, dimmable lighting and plenty of storage. Both the main bathroom and ensuite have heated tile flooring and heated vertical towel rails.

The master suite includes...
- Super comfy King-size bed
- North-facing aspect, with sliding window door to the main outdoor space
- A walk-through wardrobe with study nook, oak dresser, two large hanging racks and generous floor space to organise your holiday attire!
- Walk-in shower with rain-head and a hand-held shower
- Skylights in the wardrobe and the shower
- Dual-basins with storage, huge mirror and vanity lighting
- In-wall toilet
- Natural light from the floor-to-ceiling windows
- Sensor night-lighting
- Privacy lock to the entire suite

Bedroom 2 features an oak queen bed, marble and oak bedside tables with a comfy corner swivel chair.

Bedroom 3 has a Scandinavian designed bunk-bed setup (single on top, king single bottom), nightlight, double desk, book collection and toys appropriate for children aged 5-12yrs.

Bedroom 4 has an plush king-single bed, secret chill out nook/daybed (concealed behind curtains), children's books and toys (3-6yrs), nightlight & white noise. There is also a floor to ceiling oak ladder with gymnastic rings hung above a boucle ball pit (this is strictly for children aged 3-6 only. It can be un-installed and stored if preferred.)

All bedrooms have free standing wardrobe storage and the beds are dressed in high end 100% linen bedding.

The main bathroom features a "wet area" with a large walk in shower and over-sized bath which sits beneath a large window dressed in bifolding shutters for privacy. The vanity has a large ceramic basin, two drawers of storage and a practical mirror. The toilet is positioned conveniently in the corner to service all the bedrooms.

The home also features an unexpected dark moody powder room (toilet) near the front entrance/main living zone for convenient use throughout the day.

The entire house is heated/cooled by a ducted system for ease of temperature control. In addition, the whole-house also uses a water filtration system and copper pipes bringing you the best water possible!

The living zone features floor to ceiling windows, 2 sets of sliding doors to the outdoor areas, the east facing is a double stacker unit opening out to the main outdoor space. The blockout linen roman blinds are all motorised. There are 4 zones in this space:

The kitchen boasts a huge stone island bench with sink and 4 comfy stools to sit at the breakfast bar. There is a 90cm freestanding oven, french-door fridge+freezer, dishwasher and ample cabinetry with all the cooking utensils, hardware, cutlery, crockery and glassware.

The scullery houses the espresso machine (phew!), additional sink with Billi Tap: Instant Boiling/Chilled/Sparkling water and other coffee makers and appliances for your use.

The oval oak table seats six comfortably, and eight when needed. A child's high-chair is available for this space, for ages infant through to about 5yrs old (please enquire before you arrive for this).

The living space has an oversized 4-seater sofa, Scandinavian Leather recliner, additional cozy occasional chair and stools arranged around the nesting coffee tables to encourage easy social conversations, with a huge in-build fire place as the central backdrop. The Samsung 'Frame' TV is discreetly mounted opposite the deep tobacco velvet couch.

The media room has a large concealed pocket door that allows the room to be closed off when needed, (minimising any noise!) the plush sofa is setup for up to seat 6 opposite a wall mounted TV. There is an electric piano available tucked behind the door should there be a willing musician keen to provide live music?!

The laundry is equipped with the huge LG Washtower - 17kg washing machine and 10kg dryer, wash tub, stick vacuum, ironing board/iron and drying rack.

The outdoor space is still a work in progress with very little landscaping. However, there is a Vuly 3 bay swing-set which includes various swings for the kids, an elevated cubby, a basketball hoop and trampoline (with hose and sprinkler of course!)

Additional items that can be requested:
- Cot for infant
