Shearwater is two minutes' drive for the Woolworths, the IGA, the chemist and a coffee, which covers most of what a weekend actually requires. Devonport Airport is about ten. Close enough that someone could fly in on Friday and be on the sand before dark, which is either a selling point or a warning depending on how many friends you have or how often you want to see them.
There's a dog exercise area along the Esplanade, dawn to dusk, dogs under effective control. Bring the lead anyway.
You already know it's new. You already know nobody has lived in it. What that actually means is no weekend projects, no paint charts, and no phone calls to a builder who is currently on another job.
Then you go up the stairs, and the whole thing makes sense. Kitchen, living and dining on the top floor, opening onto a deck that looks over the reserve to the water. Most houses put the beds up here and let the view watch people sleep. This one didn't.
The kitchen has a walk in pantry and enough bench that two people can cook without one of them having to leave.
The master is up here too, down the far end with its own retreat and ensuite, which is a polite way of saying it is a long way from anyone else. Downstairs is where everyone else goes. Three more bedrooms, a rumpus/second lounge, and a covered area outside for when the wind decides to arrive.
Kids down. Adults up. Whoever drew this plan has hosted a summer before.
Four bedrooms. Two balconies. The hard part it's done.
