The View was to die for but the property was a dead duck
The best part of the property was the verandah which had the best view of the opening of the Isis River at Burrum Heads where you could watch the tide come and go and walk out of the property to the expanse of sand that went on forever.
Then you walked into the house there was an odor like old lady's clothes that need a wash. The 1970's décor was great, just a pity the cleaners had not given the place a good clean since about the 90's. The BBQ was thick with dirt, the actual grill on the BBQ was clean thanks to previous traveler's not the cleaners. Both the lounge areas had lounges that needed either complete re-upholstery or steam cleaning. The TV area lounge had no support and killed your back if you sat long enough to watch a movie. Only free to air 7,9,10,SBS and ABC channels, no internet.
The music player was an MP3 which did not work and had to be moved to the bottom lounge because there was no extension cord to play it only the radio played and only able to get ABC.
Curtains, walls, most surfaces needed dusting. All the ceiling fans needed cleaning as they had dust on them in thick lumps that fell off when you used them
Then we get to the bathroom. clean but a crazy set up the swinging bar slat doors to the shower had not been dusted for at least a year the build up of dust was thick. The bathroom has warnings on the internet and on all documentation, if you are cleaning your teeth in the bowels don't step back into the sunken bath. The teenage girls liked the sunken bath and used it.
I have also let the letting agent know that the house needs a full "Bond" Clean and I hope that she takes notice because return business will blow away with the dust.
