The Family Entertainer - with sweeping water views
The Family Entertainer is a holiday home with mesmerising sweeping views across the beautiful harbour. Sleeping up to13 guests (maximum 10 adults), this substantial home has six bedrooms and three bathrooms. An exciting feature of this fabulous property is the entertaining zone - complete with media room, pool table and table tennis table. Two large decks flow from the upstairs and downstairs living areas and take full advantage of the treetop and amazing water views.
The Family Entertainer is the perfect size for two families or a multi-generational family to enjoy during their beach holiday. The upper level has three bedrooms. The master has water views, an ensuite and king sized bed. The second bedroom has a queen bed and the third bedroom has a tri-bunk. This level also has a family bathroom. The three ground floor bedrooms are all blessed with delightful water views. The fourth and fifth bedroom each have king sized beds and the sixth bedroom has a king-zip bed (meaning it can be separated into two long single beds or zipped together to be a king sized bed). The ground floor also has a family bathroom.
The Family Entertainer is set down a private lane-way and has been designed to make the most of its elevated position directly opposite the waters edge. With no houses between you and the water the panoramic water view is very serene and private. The upper level features the kitchen, dining and living area with TV. The kitchen is fully equipped and has an island bench with four kitchen stools, making it easy to congregate in the kitchen with a wine while cooking up feasts. Flows out onto a deck where the 180 degree views can best be appreciated. For alfresco dining there’s a 10 person outdoor dining table and chairs on the deck that’s sure to be another much used spot. The ground floor is Activity HQ! A table tennis and pool table is just the thing to get everyone interacting while having a game together. Another deck and a media room with 75 TV, which is a handy place to watch a movie, sport or for the kids to chillax in, is also on the ground floor.
There’s a double lock up garage with a TESLA Gen 3 wall connector and off street parking for an additional two cars. The laundry houses a washing machine and dryer. Year round comfort is assured with ceiling fans throughout and ducted reverse cycle air-conditioning on the top floor. Wi-Fi is provided.
