564 Murdering Point Road

Sitting on almost 2 acres (7584 sqm) of fully landscaped and totally private grounds, this family property should tick off every box on your list. There are 20 Kilowatts of Solar on the roof with a 50 Kilowatt battery storage. The owners simply can't use the power they create and store. Zero electricity cost across the whole of the property. The main House: The solid block, single-level home is fully rendered. With three large bedrooms with built-in robes and new air conditioning throughout. The kitchen is massive and flows easily into the open-plan dining and lounge. Stainless steel appliances, including the dishwasher and rangehood, keep the cook happy. From the living room, a set of glass doors opens to a patio and then straight out to the pool with its cascading rock face waterfall. There is also a giant swing-out umbrella that provides shade while floating in the pool chair. The house has cool tiles all the way through, which is perfect for our climate and this resort-style of living. The office was previously used as a fourth bedroom. There are two bathrooms in the main home, with the master bathroom featuring a very large spa tub. The Guest House: There is an additional fully self-contained one-bedroom bungalow, which is perfect for visitors or extended family, and has also operated as a very profitable Airbnb. It is large and comfortable, and if you have older children who won't leave home, at least they will have their own space. It has a modern bathroom, is also air-conditioned, and has a kitchenette. This was very popular as a B&B and could easily provide a tidy little income if you were so inclined. Outdoor living: Under a separate roof is a large outdoor living area/ bar/ man cave. It has a pool table, hot and cold water to the sink, and versatile seating from the dining table to the bar stool. This is the place that the family and guests naturally gravitate to, and it has been the place where many a tall tale has been told. This is where the whole family will return to for Christmas. Shedding: The main shed offers 114 sqm of capacity and was designed to fit a massive reef boat on a trailer. It has 3.6 metres of height clearance on the centre door, with the second door having a remote. There is also a mezzanine. Behind it is an additional shed where any mechanical work is done, and then an additional two-bay plus lockup storage. If you are into old cars or motorbikes or have a caravan and boat, they will be well stored here. Additional features include bore water for the landscaped gardens, with a wall of tropical plants creating absolute privacy. You are just a few minutes from one of the best beaches in the region and the best fishing and diving grounds. The reef is so close here that you can walk out to it on the right tide, and it is a short zip across the water to a selection of tropical islands. There is room for chicken, many established fruit trees, and plenty of space for a market garden. Add the on-site power production, and you could easily get close to self-sufficiency. This property is truly a sanctuary to come home to every day. Contact Michael Skuse .
