About this property

Elevated Coastal Escape ~ Birds by Day, Lights by Night

** All guests are welcomed with a bottle of SA wine and chocolate **

Looking for a unique, stylish, light and spacious beachside retreat for your summer holiday? It has magnificent views, so close to Jagger Lake, and centrally located to major attractions like Kings Beach, The Bluff and Franklin Pde. Have a look at this one! In beautiful condition, this property has just been listed and availability is limited.

This stunning, contemporary 4BR, 2 living and 2.5 baths, offers everything you need for a relaxed coastal break. Set on the high side of a cul de sac, the home boasts sea views of Victor Harbor, The Causeway, and a serene lake teeming with birdlife at the end of Krill Court. Take leisurely walks around the scenic lake trail and soak up the natural beauty that surrounds you. You will love the peace and tranquility of this secluded location. At night, the panoramic view is breathtaking as the houses and streets light up, and the frogs and birds croak and chirp.

Step inside and be impressed by the stylish decor and super practical layout. The ground floor welcomes you with a second living area with sliding glass doors, along with three generously sized bedrooms, a luxurious main bathroom featuring a freestanding bathtub, with a separate toilet and separate vanity area. Three people can use this space at once. Two of the three bedrooms have robes built in, and one has beautiful views to the lake.

Upstairs is where the magic happens – prepare to be wowed by the panoramic views! The open-plan kitchen, living, and dining area is flooded with natural light thanks to soaring high ceilings and expansive windows and double sliding doors. Step out onto the dual vast undercover balconies, perfect for entertaining or simply enjoying spectacular sunsets and the lightshow from Encounter Bay to Victor Harbor. The master suite, also on this level, offers views to the lake and lights, a large walk-in-robe, and a private ensuite bathroom including a walk-in shower.

There are three TVs – two big TVs in each living room, and another one in the second bedroom. The property has fast NBN, and Netflix and Stan are available. Other streaming services can be used but with your own logins.

Outside there is a beautiful garden to the front of the house which creates complete privacy and ambience to the two front downstairs bedrooms and living room. The main bedroom has timber screens for privacy, and the entire house has tinted windows for privacy and temperature control.

There is a reverse cycle split system upstairs (which is rarely needed due to loads of extra insulation), ceiling fans in all bedrooms and living rooms, and a beautiful gas log fire heater for warmth and ambience in winter.

** Steep Driveway Warning **
The driveway is a work of art, featuring exposed aggregate and a custom designed curb. It is steep and has a curve to get up to the house. The driveway will not suit everyone. It takes a little getting used to. We will send you the trick to mastering it, but if you’re not a confident driver, this might not be the property for you. It’s also a steep driveway to walk up, so whilst you can park at street level, it might be difficult carrying loads up and down the driveway. If you’re not sure, please get in touch with us first and we will talk you through it.

The carport can easily fit two cars and there is another car parking space at the bottom of the driveway (plus more out the front).

Bedroom Configuration (Sleeps 8):

Main Bedroom: King Bed (Sleeps 2)
Second Bedroom: Queen Bed (Sleeps 2)
Third Bedroom: Queen Bed (Sleeps 2)
Fourth Bedroom: 2 Single Beds (Sleeps 2)

** There are three beautiful beaches nearby **
Kings Beach: A fantastic spot for walks with a sheltered little beach just a few hundred meters along the walking track.
Petrel Cove: Perfect for soaking in the scenic views (swimming is not advised due to strong rips).
Encounter Bay Beach: Located approximately a 10-minute walk from the property.
Both Petrel Cove and Kings Beach are about a 15-minute walk away. Alternatively, all three beaches are just a 2-minute drive from the property.

100% Pet-Friendly
The property welcomes your well-behaved pets inside. There is a small, fenced area off the laundry for dogs (with a small lawn area). The fence is 1.2m high. The local lake is a mecca for dogs, with walking trails around the lake and down to the beach.

Encounter Bay luxury
After being allotted a “pet friendly” cabin at a local caravan park we decided even our dog could not stay there as it was terrible. We needed to find somewhere else quickly and came across this property. Talk about rags to riches. It could not have been any more different. And really not that much more in cost. With lovely views of the ocean - utter luxury. And don’t be put off by the driveway- take heed of their instructions and it is a breeze.
