The rear ground floor deck provides a covered place for outdoor meals (with a huge 12 seater table, another 12 chairs and BBQ) and overlooks the fully enclosed rear yard, with the amazing 6-seater heated spa and hot/cold water outdoor shower. The side covered deck provides yet another space to relax. There is space for 2 cars in the double garage with internal access into the home (and roller door access into the rear yard), and space in the driveway for another vehicle. The upstairs front balcony provides views to the Cowes beach and bedroom 3 has a private rear balcony.
Kitchens
The fully appointed downstairs kitchen is equipped with standard cooking utensils, crockery, cutlery, microwave, Delonghi Nespresso compatible pod coffee machine, toaster, kettle, etc. plus a double sink, pantry, large fridge, dishwasher, 900mm electric oven and 5-burner gas cook top. There is also a kitchenette upstairs with its own bar fridge, sink and plenty of cupboards.
Heating/Cooling Systems
The home has 10 wall mounted reverse cycle heating and cooling units. One in each of the 6 bedrooms, plus one each in the downstairs dining, family & living rooms, plus one more in the upstairs living room.

Linen
It is common in the region for some linen to be provided for bookings, and some linen to be available as an optional extra. By default, a booking at this home does not include optional linen (top & bottom sheets, bath towels and pillowcases). What is included are doonas (quilts) with covers, pillows without covers, tea towels, hand towels and bathmats. If you would like the optional linen included in your booking, please let us know, including which beds you would like it provided for. The additional cost would be a one-off charge of $30 per bed (some sites add a service fee to these costs) - and we prefer 7 days' notice prior to your arrival to get that arranged.
