About this property

Percy`s Place: Family-friendly Waterfront Serenity

A family-friendly retreat, where coastal styling meets panoramic water views to create a peaceful haven designed for connection and relaxation. Step into the welcoming living area, where a spacious sectional sofa invites you to unwind with a book, stream a film on the smart TV, or admire the tranquil river scenery.

The kitchen balances function and style with timber benchtops, open shelving, and modern appliances. Fully equipped with a stove, oven, dishwasher, coffee maker, and cooking basics, it makes mealtimes easy, while the dining area provides a warm space for family gatherings.

Three bedrooms offer restful escapes, each reflecting the home’s calming aesthetic. The primary bedroom features a queen bed and a dedicated workspace for remote workdays, the second is furnished with a double bed, while the third provides two single beds—ideal for children or friends. All rooms include fresh linens, blackout blinds, and thoughtful touches to ensure restful sleep. The bathroom is simple and functional, with a walk-in shower, vanity storage, and complimentary toiletries. A separate laundry with a washer and drying rack makes longer stays easy.

Step outside and embrace the calm of riverside living. Begin your day with coffee on the front deck as pelicans drift by, then gather in the backyard for alfresco BBQs on the undercover patio. A fully fenced lawn gives children and pets space to play safely, while the firepit sets the scene for cosy evenings under the stars.

Year-round comfort is assured with air conditioning, heating, and ceiling fans. Board games are provided for downtime. Smaller non-shedding dogs are welcome indoors, while larger dogs can enjoy the outdoor areas (pet fee applies). Please note that cats are not permitted.
