This elevated, two-level/dual-living cedar home is tucked away at the end of a no-through road, via a private laneway, and is only 800 metres from the famous Alex beach. It is set on a tropical oasis of 971 square metres a rare size in an area dominated by 600sq m blocks complete with abundant birdlife and butterflies. A huge expanse of decking provides four entry points to the upper level of the house, which includes a large master bedroom and three additional bedrooms, all with built-in robes and fans. There are two good-sized bathrooms, one with a delightful old-style claw-foot bath. The large kitchen/dining area folds around into the living room, which has a combustion fire for those sometimes chilly winter evenings. Three sets of double-French doors lead from the dining/living areas to the north-facing decking, which includes a large veranda along the north side of the house and allows for all-year-round indoor/outdoor living. This is a real winner on those beautiful sunny winter days. Limed timber cathedral ceilings throughout this light and airy house give a wonderful feeling of openness and space. The decking on the south side has external access from two of the bedrooms and the main living area, which capture views to Caloundra and the coast. State-of-the-art "invisible" security doors face each other across the main living area, enabling the house to be left open on warm summer nights and the south-easterly sea breezes to roll through. The house and its rainforest surrounds are cool during the summer months. The main deck area is fully fenced, making it ideal for young children and pets. Downstairs there is a huge self-contained space with its own access. There are two large rooms, a kitchenette, laundry and separate wc. This space would be ideal as guest accommodation, a teenage retreat, workshop or self-contained home office. There is a PABX system and plenty of phone and power points throughout the whole house. Upstairs has lots of storage space, and roof-access pull-down stairs give you a whole attic of additional storage space.
