Some homes are bought for weekends. Others become part of family history. 5 Osprey Drive is firmly in the second category - a generous, well-loved Marion Bay retreat that has been the backdrop to years of surfing trips, fishing mornings, long lunches and the kind of summer holidays that children talk about for the rest of their lives.
Just a short stroll from Willyama Beach, the Marion Bay Tavern, the general store and the jetty, the location is as good as it gets in this village. Wake to the sound of the ocean, grab the rods and wander down before breakfast. Spend the afternoon in Dhilba GuurandaInnes National Park. Gather for sunset drinks on the deck while the kids play outside. This is the Yorke Peninsula at its unhurried best - and this home was built for exactly this kind of living.
When the family isn't using it, the home earns. Currently generating $20,000$25,000 per year on Airbnb alone, with other platforms and direct bookings completely untapped. The income offsets holding costs and grows the longer it is actively managed making this a lifestyle purchase that makes financial sense from day one.
The home
At 140sqm (approx) across a single generous level, the home accommodates large groups without compromise. Four spacious bedrooms, including a master with walk-in wardrobe and ensuite sleep up to 12 guests comfortably. Two bathrooms mean no queuing on busy family mornings. The expansive open-plan living and dining zone is made for long table meals and relaxed evenings, anchored by a well-equipped kitchen with dishwasher and excellent storage. Ceiling fans throughout and reverse-cycle split system air conditioning ensure year-round comfort whatever the season.
The home is comfortable and well presented throughout - the kind of property that needs nothing done to enjoy immediately, with natural scope to refresh and personalise over time as you make it your own.
The outdoor living
Step outside and the Yorke Peninsula lifestyle takes over completely. A huge timber entertaining deck flows from the living area - the undisputed heart of every gathering, every sunset, every long weekend. A brilliant undercover outdoor entertaining area with BBQ and dining set is made for warm summer nights. A front veranda catches the breeze and the wildlife - Marion Bay's resident emus have been known to make an appearance, to the delight of absolutely everyone.
For the serious coastal enthusiast, the large powered shed handles boat storage with room to spare. A dedicated fish cleaning station and ample parking for cars and multiple trailers rounds out a property built for people who come to Marion Bay to actually use it.
