25 Kooringal Esplanade

‘Beachfront Island Home’ This is the first time this unique and often admired family holiday home has hit the market since it was originally constructed in 1985. It is currently the only house for sale on the Island outside the body corporate controlled Tangalooma Resort. No excessive body corporate fees and charges here. Situated overlooking a calm and protected western facing sandy beach, in the holiday township of Kooringal, it has views out to Moreton Bay and beyond to Brisbane City and has the most amazing sunsets over the water. This home is situated on a free-hold property (with only limited council rates payable), is full of charming character and has a layout which is conducive to entertaining. With 160 properties and only a handful on the waterfront in Kooringal, this is truly a rare offering. The home is comprised of two wings surrounded by undercover timber floored balconies. There are three bedrooms and two bathrooms in the accommodation wing. The living wing includes a large modern open plan kitchen, walk-in pantry and massive open plan living and dining room with large glass doors that open out onto the front irrigated and manicured lawn. Between the two wings is a large entertaining ‘breezeway’ which stays cool in summer and warm in winter and is where every-one seems to congregate. Also situated near here is the Spa and outdoor hot and cold shower. Remember, this property is a holiday home and it is designed for just that. It does not feel, nor is it meant to feel like a standard suburban home. You will always feel like you are on holidays here. There is a single lock-up garage and a oversized double bali-hut style carport to house the toys. This home is also environmentally friendly and is fully self-sufficient with all power coming from Solar Panels, large battery bank, and a rarely needed back-up generator. Water is sourced from large rainwater tanks for home use and a spear-pump derives the water for outside and garden use. Built with a steel frame off the ground and claded in cypress boards, this home is resistant to termites and other invasive pests, which gives you piece of mind. Moreton Island is one of the great sand islands of the world and is 95% National Park with only a limited amount of free-hold properties in private hands. There are 40Kms of beautiful and unspoiled surf beaches and 50Kms of more protected calmer sandy beaches. This is all situated only 2 hours barge ride or 1 hours boat ride away from Brisbane City. Kooringal is the only township on Moreton Island with a protective anchorage so is preferred by those who use private boats to access the island and is easily accessible by boat from both Brisbane and the Gold Coast. The Home will come fully furnished (excluding personal items).
