Located at the end of a very quiet cul de sac, this near-new property is a peaceful place to enjoy a relaxed holiday in beautiful Encounter Bay. It is directly overlooking a beautiful lake that is a haven for birds of all types! Particular favourites are white and black cockatoos, corellas and ducks. If you get lucky, you may see a Pelican or two in the lake!
Surrounded by reserve to the front, eastern side and rear, this property embodies the saying “How’s the serenity?” Walk around the lake or head down to the beach (about 6 mins away). There are also fabulous walks close by to Petrel Cove and The Bluff, or to Kings Beach. For a long walk, take the Heysen Trail to Waitpinga Beach – Kings Beach is just a 2 min drive from this property. Then marvel at the wildlife (seals, dolphins and whales can be seen depending on the time of year), birdlife, coastal flowers and the magnificent cliffs.
The property has three bedrooms, a bathroom, laundry, and a separate toilet with laminate floorboards throughout. The open-plan kitchen/living room opens onto a large north-facing covered deck that offers great views of the lake and hills. The kitchen has stainless steel appliances and a filtered water tap. The furniture in the main living area has a beachy feel to get you in the holiday vibe from the minute you walk in the door.
The main bedroom has sliding doors to a deck and wonderful views of the willow trees along Jagger Lake. There is a wall-mounted TV so you can enjoy a lie-in while watching your favourite show (or let the kids into the main bedroom and they can watch Tv while adults enjoy the big screen TV in the main living area).
The main living area opens up to a big deck (complete with a roof for all-weather use). The deck is finished with two timber lounge chairs, a coffee table, a dining table and benches and a BBQ for outdoor cooking. It has recessed downlights for nighttime entertaining. Leading from the deck is a boardwalk up to the fully enclosed rear yard – a great, secure space for your dogs to play.
All bedrooms have stainless steel ceiling fans. The house also has reverse-cycle air conditioning. Slimline roller blinds and timber flooring throughout give the house a contemporary feel.
With views from the deck, living area and two bedrooms to Jagger Lake (which attracts loads of birdlife), this home will appeal to couples and families. It is comfortable, peaceful, quiet and relaxing: the perfect getaway!
