There are plenty of homes where the view belongs to one room. At 2 Arthur Street, the view follows you through the house.
From its elevated position at the end of a quiet Boyne Island cul-de-sac, the outlook stretches uninterrupted across the Boyne River, towards the river mouth and out to the ocean beyond. It's a view that can't be built out, and one that becomes the backdrop to everyday life here.
But the real surprise is how much home sits behind it.
Extensively renovated across two levels, 2 Arthur Street offers the kind of space and versatility you don't expect from a three-bedroom home. Multiple living zones, an enclosed sunroom, dedicated office, home gym, substantial garaging and storage all sit within a property where virtually every major upgrade has already been taken care of.
Upstairs, the expansive living and rumpus areas make the most of the home's elevated position, capturing the water outlook and cooling coastal breezes. There's room to entertain properly, room for the family to spread out and, importantly, spaces that still feel comfortable when it's just you at home.
The enclosed sunroom is something special. Framing panoramic views across the river towards the river mouth and ocean, it's a place you'll find yourself using differently throughout the day - coffee in the morning, a quiet afternoon with a book, or a drink as the light changes over the water.
The renovated kitchen feels warm, considered and made for everyday use. Timber benchtops pair beautifully with soft-close cabinetry, while a glass cooktop, Kleenmaid oven and generous walk-in pantry take care of the practical side. It's a kitchen with plenty of workspace, plenty of storage and none of the compromises that often come with renovating an established home.
All three bedrooms are spacious and air-conditioned, and all three enjoy water views. The main bathroom has also been beautifully updated with a large walk-in shower and modern vanity, with a separate toilet adding everyday practicality.
Then there's downstairs.
This level changes what the home can do for you. A substantial secondary living area gives teenagers, guests or family their own place to retreat, while a dedicated office means working from home doesn't have to mean sacrificing a bedroom or taking over the dining table.
Alongside it, the home gym creates a private wellness space of your own. Whether you use every area exactly as it is or adapt them over time, the flexibility is already built in.
The 2.8m double lock-up garage provides excellent clearance, with mezzanine storage making use of the space above and giving you somewhere for the things you want accessible but out of the way.
Outside, a covered alfresco area provides another spot to entertain or unwind, while the fully fenced 607m² corner allotment leaves room for what's next. There's space to accommodate a caravan or boat, along with potential for a pool, large shed or further outdoor improvements to make the property completely your own.
And this isn't a renovation that's stopped at what you can see.
The home has been fully repainted inside and out, with a brand-new roof and insulation, new electrical and plumbing fit-outs, a new large hot water system, new security screens throughout and new front and rear staircases. The big-ticket work has already been done, leaving the next owner to enjoy the result.
All of this sits within easy reach of Boyne Plaza, schools, childcare, cafés and restaurants, with the Boyne Island boat ramp nearby and the beaches of Tannum Sands only minutes away.

INSIDER'S SECRET...
The best feature here isn't one particular room - it's how much this home allows you to do.
You can work from home without losing a bedroom. Give teenagers or guests their own living space downstairs. Store the boat or caravan at home. Entertain inside or out. And at the end of it all, you can sit back and look across a stretch of the Boyne River and ocean that no future development can take away.
Kitchens can be renovated. Sheds and pools can be added. What you can't add later is position - and that's what makes 2 Arthur Street so difficult to replicate.
The photos capture the view, but they can't quite capture what it's like to have it around you. Come and see the space, the renovation and that outlook for yourself.
