“Certainly families will be among the buyers, but also downsizers and retirees looking for that slower, peaceful life,” he said.
“It’s appealing to have a track over the dunes to the beach located right next to the house.
“To be able to step from your yard straight onto the sand is special.”
The kitchen anchors the home beautifully, offering plenty of storage and generous benchspace.
Flowing seamlessly from here, the dining room and cosy living area provide relaxed spaces for daily life and entertaining guests.
Accommodation is thoughtfully arranged across four bedrooms plus a dedicated office, catering to a range of needs.

“The master bedroom suite is impressive, large and luxurious, and with water views through the leafy outlook of the gum trees on the sand dunes.
“The vendors love the easy access to the water for beach activities – when they bought the home, this lifestyle appealed to them greatly.”
