The lounge opens through french doors into the front deck, with the deck, lounge and bedrooms offering expansive views over the reserve, golf course, and lake.
Great fireplace in the house to keep you toasty warm in the winter with firewood provided. There is a heat pump in the house also, if you don't want to light the fire.

What makes this property unique
I love this place because you can enjoy the awesome views over the reserve and golf course to the lake from either inside the house or relaxing on the front deck. In summer the roses out the front of the house are spectacular. In winter, the easy to light fire gives it a great, cosy feeling.
