With its sublime waterfront setting, this brand-new home has been flawlessly presented to extend the seasons outdoors. Staged over a single level, it features sophisticated smart technology and is fully air-conditioned with ceiling fans throughout, creating a year-round sanctuary for guests. Once you step inside you simply won’t want to leave. The open plan living and dining area opens to an entertainers’ patio replete with an outdoor kitchen, BBQ grill and alfresco lounge. This is an idyllic spot to watch the sunset with a glass of wine or cook up a feast utilising the region’s notable fresh produce. Kids will love playing on the grassy lawn and making a splash in the stunning wet-edge swimming pool. Enjoy water edge access and take out the 4 kayaks (2 for adults and 2 for children) for an adventure on the marina. Inside, the gourmet kitchen is centred around a sleek island bench allowing ample space to socialise and prepare meals. It comes fully kitted with high-end appliances and utensils including an oven with induction stovetop, microwave, kettle, toaster, coffee machine, blender, sandwich press, rice cooker, and much more, complete with a dishwasher for easy clean-up. Make use of the walk-in butler's pantry with a wash-up area, huge pantry and dual-zone bar fridge to keep your wine and other beverages at the desired temperature. Sit down at the large eight-person dining table, opening the doors and allowing the natural breezes to stream through. Afterwards, relax on the oversized leather sofa, or kick your legs up in the media room, which creates a true cinema experience at home. Both are equipped with Samsung 65-inch UHD LED Smart TVs and Foxtel Premium for streaming. A dedicated study nook and free Wi-Fi throughout accommodates those on a working holiday. Each of the five bedrooms has been immaculately set up with hotel-quality linen, privacy locks and black-out curtains to promote a good night’s sleep.
