Secure behind passcode-protected gates for lock-and-leave peace of mind, this substantial five-bedroom beachcomber's delight with two self-contained wings flaunts the ultimate set-up for multi-family getaways or laidback permanent living with room for the in-laws. An immaculately maintained beach-house classic drenched in light throughout, hardwood timber, slate flooring and exposed brick contrast well against the soft tones and exposed ceiling beams for a character-filled ambience in the original part of the home, which offers an L-shaped living and dining area uniting with the kitchen, along with three bedrooms, a modern bathroom and laundry. Connected by a chic second living area with polished concrete floors and separate glass-door entry, the contemporary extension at the rear boasts a deluxe self-contained two-bedroom wing with a second kitchen with stainless appliances, third living area, second elegant bathroom and second laundry, with a north-facing barbecue deck through sliding glass doors for alfresco dining. An incredibly versatile property allowed for fully separate or seamlessly united living, extras include a built-in playground with slide, carport, ample off-street parking for cars/boat, under-house storage for the beach toys, separate entrance gates for the rear accommodation and plenty of flat lawn to add a pool or spa.
