The Property
Inside, you’re welcomed by a home that feels both relaxed and quietly refined.

Upstairs is where the home really opens up. The lounge and dining room stretches generously across the first floor, crowned at one end by a balcony just made for balmy evenings and sea air. At the quieter end, you’ll find the primary bedroom with en-suite, and built in storage.
The Outside
Outside, life flows effortlessly from indoors to out. Just off the kitchen’s sliding doors, a sheltered seating area is enclosed by a glass windbreak and an overhead, retractable awning, creating a spot that’s both protected and open. From there, the decking extends outward, generous in size and perfectly positioned for soaking up the sun. The garden flows seamlessly onto the beach, making the shoreline feel like a natural extension of your own back garden.
To the front, you’ll find private off-road parking set beside two store rooms, ideal for stowing away bikes, boards, and beach gear with ease.
