Lofty ceilings, exposed beams, and miles from the store - this is the country escape youve been longing for, but with a twist so close to the beach you can hear the surf. Youre sure to fall in love the second you open the door and see the formal living, dining and kitchen area (or as we like to call it, the heart of the home). Sunshine floods in from the countless windows when the weather is nice. But even when its not so the traditional character radiates warmth plus the fireplace of course, in which winters will be happily spent in front of. There are plenty more places that will make you swoon, too. How does an alfresco breakfast surrounded by the lush flora sound? How about curling up with a good read on the chaise lounge in front of the grand arch window, overlooking the rolling hills. If youre searching for somewhere you can disconnect from the hustle and bustle of the real world, youve found it. Play a few games of billiards and darts, pop a DVD on, or settle in for a board game. When we say you can unwind here, we really mean it. After many years as a private family holiday home, the lovely owners of Elcott House would love to share their little piece of paradise with you. \~ Configuration \~ 6 Guests | 3 Bedrooms | 2 Bathrooms Formal Living: Cosy lounges wood fireplace Living: Cosy lounges, large TV, Apple TV, DVD player DVDs Kitchen: Fully equipped Dining: Seating for 8 Master Suite: King bed, chaise lounge, TV, walk-in wardrobe ducted heating/cooling Ensuite: Shower, vanity toilet Bedroom 2: Queen bed, built-in robe ducted heating/cooling Bedroom 3: 2x Single beds, built-in robe ducted heating/cooling Bathroom: Bath, shower, vanity separate toilet Laundry: Washing machine, tumble dryer wash trough Outdoors: Sea glimpses, alfresco area with dining casual seating, lush flora manicured lawns \~ Around \~ There are no shops in the suburb itself, but that's one of the main reasons why we love it - the pinnacle of peace quiet.
