The Area:
Hugged by shaded verandas & a gently sloping yard, stands this beautiful home amongst the Moonah Trees—a native species blanketing the Peninsula. A 10 minute walk leads to a secluded path accessing St Andrews Beach which has one of the longest stretches of ocean beach before the way is blocked by magnificent sandstone cliffs & coves. If you enjoy long walks on the beach St Andrews is your destination! This area is also home to some of the best rock pools on the Peninsula. Walk just a few blocks to Ocean Drive to find paths leading to the ocean & a walking track that stretches through the dunes above the cliffs. -
Outdoor Spaces:
Open-plan living gives the home a breezy air that carries through the house to the calm green yard. Enjoy family feasts on the 8 seat alfresco dining set up on the private back veranda beside the outdoor firepit (1 pack of wood provided) & main gas BBQ; & perhaps an aperitif beforehand in the Barrel House—a detached room set up as a grown-ups retreat (please be mindful of the edge of the veranda). With no shortage of options, there is also an outdoor lounge suite & patio heater on the side veranda, & on lazy afternoons hang out in the shady hammock with a book. -
