The Space: The residence is cleverly divided into two wings, linked by a corridor that leads to the main bathroom, toilet, and laundry area. The rooms, with their charmingly sloped ceilings, exude warmth and coziness—just mind the headroom. The living and dining spaces are open and inviting, perfect for unwinding.
The backyard is equally spacious and inviting, ensuring that your outdoor moments are as enjoyable as those spent indoors. The three-car garage, primarily used for entertainment during the chillier days, adds a unique touch to the property. The driveway comfortably accommodates three vehicles, adding to the convenience.
Guest Access: Guests will enjoy access to the majority of the house, with the exception of the area behind the garage and along the back fence line.
Other Things to Note: Please be cautious of the steep incline in a section of the driveway. Additionally, be mindful of the gas meter located near the driveway on the side of the house.
The vacation home is air-conditioned and features a kitchen and 2 bathrooms, and there's space to spread out with 4 bedrooms. Guests can enjoy a Smart TV and stay connected with free WiFi. The vacation home also includes an ironing board.

Great house, great location
We had a lovely time at this house. 2 families with 5 kids between us. The house being separated into wings gave everyone privacy but the communal spaces were comfy and well appointed making a really cosy home for us all. Location was excellent, with coffee and takeout close by, and, of course, Bird World! Would love to stay here again.

Nice house, just an odd layout. Driveway is very steep and made moving in and out a little difficult, but happy with the location
