A vista of majestic Paperbarks with shimmering ocean backdrop is the picturesque and tranquil setting for this Bramston Beach property new on the market. Not the traditional beach shack, the home has all the comforts of a well-established family residence and equally well-maintained.
This is the most substantial absolute beachfront home to come on the market for several years. Solidly built in masonry block the house has more than 350m2 under roof.
The home is geared for outdoor living with the towering Paperbarks providing filtered sunlight to the huge rear paved deck which spans the entire back of the house. And all the essential items are there too, a gas barbeque, gas rings, generous sized bar and in-built refrigerator. Not just a marvelous entertaining area but for regular dining too. Breakfast on the patio with views through to Russell Island by day and flood lighting installed under the Paperbarks highlighting the tree tops some 30m above
Three of the bedrooms as well as the kitchen open on to a covered pool deck paved in slate and set off with more tropical plants. The master bedroom is of generous size with views through large glass doors both to the beach on one side and the pool area on the other giving flow-through ventilation. It has its own en-suite and also features a large Japanese style Shoji screened wardrobe and, ladies take note-a special mould-free storage for shoes, hats and handbags.
The kitchen, which is located adjacent to and accessible to both the pool deck and the beach-side deck has been designed to have dedicated storage facilities with every drawer, cupboard and shelf having specific purposes and being ergonomically laid out to reduce unnecessary movement when preparing meals.
The street frontage of the house features a pink granite stone paved courtyard and large carport which could accommodate two vehicles plus a boat. Part of the courtyard is shaded for the present owner's bonsai collection. A bathroom/laundry and separate toilet are located on this side of the house and also a room that could be utilised for sewing, hobbies or maybe an office. A well- ventilated clothes drying room is also located on the north- west corner of the house which ensures that clothes still get air-dried even during the wet season.
For the handyman, a workshop area of approximately 32 m2 extends along most of the northern side of the house with bench, shelving and cupboards. This area could be converted into a gym or perhaps a pool room if desired.
There are ceiling fans in all rooms as well as the deck area and the gardens and lawns are kept watered automatically by two computer controlled reticulation systems reducing garden maintenance to a minimum.
