At its heart is an open-plan kitchen, dining and living area, complemented by a separate lounge with wood burner. A generous entrance with skylights brings an abundance of natural light into the home and character leadlight windows retain its period charm. Downstairs are two bedrooms, both with underfloor heating, along with a bathroom and separate utility room. Upstairs, a further two double bedrooms include the primary suite with walk-in wardrobe and water views. The family bathroom is beautifully appointed with a separate bath and shower, custom vanity and sea-blue tiling that provides a fitting nod to the coastal setting.
