With custom wall murals and one of a kind artwork, this house is over the top to delight the senses. The accented achromatic colour scheme is a mixture of striking black & white with mixes of grey and the Hi-C blue accent colour provides a pop of colour. COTS/TOYS/GAMES: Although kids/infants are welcome this property does not provide cots/toys/games, so if you require these items you will need to bring them with you. FURNITURE UPDATES: Furniture and decor may vary from the pictures, as we continually rearrange and update to enhance the guest experience. SISTER PROPERTY: Check out "Retro Chic Vibes, Tropical Pool & Prime Location" in Fortitude Valley Brisbane QLD, which opened in 2019. This has the similar & fun design to delight your senses. HOUSE ACCESS: The whole house is accessible including the enclosed deck. Guests do not have access to the backyard (via the side gate) or the granny flat at the rear of the property. PARKING: There is no undercover or off street parking. When parking near the property do not park in front of the neighbour's houses. When you park your car do not park on the grass, instead park by the side of the road. DISHWASHER USE: When the dishwasher is in use, this will interfere with the hot water of the shower. It is advised to use the glass cycle and not the eco cycle as this runs for 2.5hrs. BATHROOM FLOOR: When the tile in the bathroom is wet it is very slippery. Use the bath mat provided when using the shower. 3RD BEDROOM: The 3rd bedroom is not attached to the main house and is a Private self contained Studio with kitchenette & bathroom/shower. When the bathroom light is switched on the ceiling exhaust fan goes on and cause's a small vacuum in the room making the door harder to open. There is no sink in the bathroom, however the sink is at the kitchenette. The wardrobes in the Studio are locked off to store household items: cleaning supplies/linen & equipment, maintenance tools, etc. Do not force these doors open. LINEN: All linen is line dried in the sun to minimise the large amount of energy required in using dryers. This helps protect the environment, if your towels are not as fluffy as you desire you may throw them in the dryer for 2 mins. NEIGHBOURS & NOISE: The house is nestled closely between 2 x private residence and our neighbour's live in their properties permanently. Guests must be advised that they will hear lawn mowing, use of a whipper snipper, barking dogs, dirk bikes & general neighbourhood activities.
