From the owner

Have you ever wanted to know what it's like to live in a house on the waterfront? Well now you can. Overlooking Moreton Bay, we are located right across the road from the beautiful tree lined foreshore of Deception Bay. Easy walking distance to cafes & close proximity to local attractions. This quiet secluded, residential home is our private holiday home and we would love to share it's beautiful location with you. Ideal for couples, active seniors, families, singles & business travellers.

THE HOUSE

Recently renovated in the popular Hamptons style, we have included all the modern amenities while carefully retaining the house's beauty and charm. There is ample space to park a number of cars, or a boat, under the carport & on the 2 driveways. We have simplified your check in with a keyless digital lock giving you full flexibility with check-in anytime after 3pm.

LOUNGE

When you enter through the front door you will feel an immediate sense of calm and serenity, with large comfy lounges awaiting you in the front lounge room. Perfect for settling in to watch one of the many latest release movies we have installed on the TV. The other end is a reading nook - the bookcase is fully stocked with plenty of reading material, puzzles and games, & a dedicated laptop desk with unlimited WiFi and a docking station for charging your phone. The armchair beside the window is the perfect spot to curl up and read a good book, if you can divert your gaze away from the sea and all the birds in the trees.

KITCHEN

The kitchen will transport you to the Hamptons immediately with large overhead nautical pendants & it's huge 2m long island bench, which comfortably seats 3 on its crisp white stools. The kitchen seamlessly opens onto the dining room (perfect for family get togethers) and is a true chefs delight with Miele and Omega appliances.

BEDROOMS

Our bedrooms are cosy (a couple on the small side) as we have endeavored to give you the biggest bed we could in each bedroom. Our thinking is a bedroom is for sleeping in and you always get a good nights rest on a big comfy bed. That is why the Main bedroom has a King size bed in it, and the Second bedroom has a Queen size bed, both with quality pillow top mattresses. All the linen is hotel quality, as are the thick fluffy towels. The third bedroom currently has a king single bed with a single bed in it. It may be the smallest room but it has the best view - straight out to sea and up into the tree tops.

BATHROOMS

Second only to a good bed is a hot shower with good water pressure or a warm soak in a bathtub. Here we have both. The downstairs bathroom is truly a sanctuary with a freestanding bath and a generous sized semi-frameless shower. We have even installed dimmer lights so you can luxuriate in the tub with some mood lighting.

Upstairs the bathroom is smaller but still has a generous semi-frameless shower, and a vanity with perfect natural light for makeup application. Note: Both showers have a rain shower head AND a handheld shower head.

SUNROOM

Across the front upstairs the sunroom has a large 55cm TV (also with movies) and flows out onto the front balcony which overlooks the Bay. It is the perfect spot for watching the sailing through the telescope, or to watch the mesmerising sunrise in the morning. (you have never seen the sun this colour before, I'm sure)

PERGOLA & BBQ

Out the back is yet another great living area. Relax under the large undercover pergola area with a dining table capable of seating 8 people, or fire up the gas BBQ and cook up that local catch of the day. Perfect for long summery lunches or evening al fresco dining.

Guest access

You have full access to the entire property inside and out apart from the locked garage at the rear of the carport, and the small storage are under the stairs.

Interaction with guests

This is our holiday home but we do not live here so you have full reign of the house and grounds. There is a keyless digital lock installed so you are not locked into check-in times (so long as you arrive after 3pm), plus there are no keys to worry about or loose.

Other things to note

We love to come here for our getaways too and so you will find we have equipped this home with all the amenities and extra little things we like to use when we are on vacation. Like the bookcase which is overflowing with best-selling novels, magazines, puzzles, games, cook books, and more.
