Discover this beautifully designed villa in Parap, where comfort meets contemporary style. Unwind in inviting living areas, or fire up the BBQ, grab a drink from the outdoor fridge, and catch a game on the TV by the private pool. Inside, split-system air conditioning and ceiling fans ensure ultimate comfort, while three bathrooms and a gourmet kitchen provide everything you need for a seamless stay. Just minutes from Parap Village Markets and Vesteys Beach, this is your perfect tropical escape. Step into this stylish villa, designed for effortless indoor-outdoor living. Sink into the living area’s vibrant seating and watch your favourite shows on the TV. Escape to the rumpus room, where a sofa, armchairs, and a TV create a hideaway for late-night movies.
Create delicious meals in the fully equipped kitchen, featuring an oven, dishwasher, espresso machine, and spacious island—perfect for casual bites. Find extra storage and handy appliances in the butler’s pantry. Share meals at the timber dining table for ten or step onto the alfresco area, fire up the gas BBQ, and dine under the open sky. Lounge outdoors, grab a cold drink from the outdoor fridge and catch a game on the TV by the sparkling pool.
Drift off in five bedrooms, each designed for restful nights. Wake up in the primary suite, where a king bed, TV, built-in storage, and an ensuite with a double vanity and walk-in shower provide comfort and convenience. Then step straight outside for a morning swim in the pool. Curl up in the second bedroom’s queen-sized bed for a slow morning, watching your favourite show on the wall-mounted TV. The third and fourth bedrooms each offer a queen bed, with the fourth also including a TV for private entertainment. The fifth bedroom, with two king single beds, is ideal for friends or family. Transform the rumpus room’s sofa bed into extra sleeping space, strictly for two kids. Soak in the bathtub or rinse off in the walk-in shower in the full bathroom, or skip the wait and freshen up quickly in the third bathroom.
Enjoy a stress-free stay with a washer, dryer, and secure carport for four vehicles. Year-round comfort is guaranteed with split-system air conditioning and ceiling fans. During your stay, you and your group will have the entire villa to yourselves. Please make yourselves at home!
Immerse yourself in Parap’s vibrant charm, with top local spots just moments away. Stroll eight minutes to the Parap Village Markets, where weekend food stalls serve up the famous laksa. Grab a fresh brew from Laneway Coffee or savour Chinese dishes at Happy Garden, both right nearby. Next door, the Northern Centre for Contemporary Art features dynamic exhibitions from talented artists. Take a 15-minute walk to Vesteys Beach for a peaceful coastal escape. Drive four minutes to Lake Alexander for paddleboarding on calm waters, or five minutes to the Botanic Gardens to wander through tropical flora.
