If you’re dreaming of an idyllic location at the South-end of the island, where the wildlife outnumbers humans and birdsong is the official language, then this peaceful enclave welcomes you home.
13 Medika Drive is somewhat of misnomer, when in fact it’s a grassy knoll you drive upon to reach this 3-bedroom, 2-bathroom family home. The local ducks and curlews greet you on arrival and the tall gums in the conservation area, opposite, sway in a silent ‘hello’.
You’ll feel a calmness and sense of peace as you take in your surroundings, already knowing, you belong here. Breathe the fresh air and let the sea breeze tickle your skin, while you take the few steps to the sunny porch. It’s here you’ll witness a myriad of warm hues from the island sunsets, spreading love and joy to close each day.
Through the wide sliding doors, catch the curtains dance across the polished boards and notice how the space is bathed in natural light, reflecting the easy lifestyle. The open-plan living spans the front of the home, while the bedrooms are tucked quietly, to the rear.
The glossy-white kitchen with star-speckled, black-as-night stone benchtops is the pulse of this spacious living area. There’s an island prep area with breakfast bar; electric cooktop and oven; plenty of storage; room for a dishwasher and a blackboard-wall for the grocery list or to keep little ones entertained.
There’s room for a family-sized lounge and dining suite, plus if you work from home, the third bedroom behind the lounge area, could be your office. All rooms have ceiling fans for those balmy summer nights and a reverse-cycle air-conditioner keeps you cool in summer and cosy in winter.
A hallway with storage at one end, separates the two queen-size bedrooms from the living zone. The 2-way bathroom provides ensuite access from the main bedroom and serves as the family bathroom. A convenient laundry by the backdoor, has a second shower and there’s a separate toilet for guests.
Outdoors, the perfect East-facing backyard offers low-maintenance permaculture gardens with fruit trees, veggie beds and abundant herbs and flowers in bloom. Children will love exploring this fully-fenced playground; there’s lawn for spontaneous picnics, a clothesline which doubles as a cubbyhouse (just add a sheet) and so many secret spaces to be found. Pets will thank you for the shady places under fruit trees and the feature birdbath which makes a fabulous water-bowl for the larger dog or visiting wildlife on the 584m2 block.
A garden shed takes care of tools and storage, while the fully lined, drive-through lockup garage provides access to the rear and a home for your car. But why not open the double-doors and use it for a private all-weather entertaining area? Or maybe you need extra room for a teenage hangout, a zen retreat, or a dedicated consulting room? So many options to suit every stage of life!
You’ll be impressed by all the extras this home comes with:
• Solar panels (low-no electric bills)
• Rainwater tank
• Garden shed

This well-maintained property is ready to occupy and provides a wonderful opportunity for the professional couple, growing family, or active retiree.
You can walk to Rocky Point to cast a line or enjoy the incredible sunsets. Sandy Beach is just around the bend, to dip your toes or launch a kayak and explore the magical waterways of the Southern Moreton Bay Islands.
It’s a short drive to town for the ferry, school-run (although you’re on the school-bus route), cafés, shops and all the services you’d expect in a country village. While many people commute to Brisbane and beyond for work, there’s ample opportunity on the island for trades and astute business operators.
Why settle for mediocre or those cookie-cutter new homes, when you can make 13 Medika your special place for a chilled island lifestyle.
