Owner's Comments - Why we have lived here since 1989.
Imagine this: Your day begins with sunrise over the Stuart Range viewed from your bedroom while you listen to the dawn chorus of many birds out of the 140 species recorded on the property. Breakfast on the north facing veranda which gets the sun in winter and cooling sea breezes in summer, a leisurely stroll around the many walkways through the hundreds of native plants established in the gardens. After work, return from the urban hurly burly to a tranquil and quiet peace, relax on the open deck and watch the sunset to the west with glimpses of the Pinnacles through riverside trees. Most evenings, enjoy the exciting duet of the resident pair of Barking Owls before they head off hunting. You could be a world away.
