The Perfect Family Island Getaway

Check out this perfect family island getaway! Fondly known as 'Kawau Retreat', the owners have enjoyed time with their children, creating memories and enjoying everything the stunning island of Kawau has to offer. This gorgeous property also brings in a handy bonus income as a popular BookaBach holiday destination with a 10/10 ranking.

You will appreciate the quality and detail that has made this both a comfortable home and holiday hub. A solid, quality build on an easy-to-access 6336m2 section. The house is fully insulated with double glazed windows and aluminum joinery throughout. Gorgeous timber cathedral ceilings will impress, and a cozy wood fire is delightful to snuggle up to in winter.

The residence easily accommodates multiple families or extended family and friends with 3-4 bedrooms and 3 bathrooms, complemented by spacious and open living spaces flowing out to expansive wrap-around decking. The kitchen is divine and caters for everyone's wants, needs and desires; a roomy walk-in pantry will have you stocked up for weeks! The palatial master bedroom includes a large ensuite, complete with toilet and bidet plus a sizable walk-in wardrobe. The rumpus area upstairs accommodates 4 bunk beds for the kids, additional guests, or could serve as a teenage hangout, all with superb water views over Starboard Arm, North Cove and beyond. Conveniently located just 15 minutes from Sandspit, this haven offers accessibility without sacrificing seclusion. The rhythm of the sea and the melodies of native birds compose the soundtrack of everyday life here-a melody of relaxation and rejuvenation.

After a day on the water fishing and diving, relax on the decks with a glass of wine and a BBQ fired up as the children frolic about in lush bush behind the house or happily play along the waterfront. Launch boats or kayaks in a safe and sheltered bay, perfect for young families to holiday at ease. Shares in the Starboard Arm Wharf + a mooring is available. Don't own a boat yet? No problem, the Kawau ferry will drop you off at the wharf and it is a pleasant stroll along a pathway from there to the property. Go to www.kawauisland.org for more information on the island.

This is a rare opportunity for you to be the proud owners of this perfect family island getaway. Safe, sheltered and undeniably gorgeous; up there as one of the finest built houses on the island. Make her yours today!
