Some houses make you choose between the sea breeze and the bush. This one gives you a balcony for each.
Upstairs, the front balcony catches partial ocean views. Out the back, a second balcony looks straight over the reserve, because there's nobody behind you, just trees. Morning coffee on one, sunset on the other, and an ongoing debate about which is better.
It's a proper beach house on a big 943sqm block. Exposed timber beams run through the open plan kitchen and dining, and sliding doors open onto a paved alfresco out the back. Upstairs, a huge loft-style rumpus has room for bunks, a games table and whoever's visiting for the summer. A second living area opens onto the front balcony.
Two bedrooms downstairs open onto the wraparound veranda, and a third sits upstairs looking into the treetops. The cladding is only 8 months old, so the outside is already done. The kitchen and bathrooms are original, which means solid bones and room to put your own stamp on it without paying for someone else's renovation.
