About this property

Long Island Retreat—Minutes from Dining & Beaches

Discover modern elegance in this beautifully designed two-level retreat with breathtaking views of Dunsborough Lake. Gather in the main living area, where two sofas, a smart TV, armchair and direct access to a lakeside deck. Head upstairs to the second living room, where a sofa, bean bags, and a TV create the perfect space for movie marathons and board games.

Cook up a storm in the fully equipped kitchen, featuring stainless steel appliances and a DeLonghi Eletta coffee machine—just bring your favourite beans for a barista-style morning brew. Enjoy casual breakfasts at the island bench, or share meals around the wooden dining table for eight. As evening falls, fire up the BBQ and enjoy alfresco feasts at the glass-top wicker dining table on the covered deck, while pets and kids play safely in the fully enclosed garden.

Wake up to waterfront scenery in the upstairs primary suite, featuring a king bed, ensuite and a private balcony, where wicker armchairs and a coffee table invite you to unwind with a glass of wine as the sunset paints the sky. Freshen up in the ensuite, complete with a walk-in shower and spacious vanity. Find three additional bedrooms downstairs for extra sleeping space. Settle into the second and third bedrooms, each with a king bed for a restful night after a long day. Let the kids or friends have their own space in the fourth bedroom with a single bed and a bunk bed. Pamper yourself in the bathroom downstairs, featuring a rainfall shower and a deep soaking tub. Take advantage of the washer and dryer, ensuring a hassle-free stay for longer visits.

Play all day in the games room, where a dedicated play area for little ones, a foosball table, a ping pong table, and an arcade machine offer endless fun. Ride the provided bikes through the neighbourhood or enjoy year-round comfort with fully ducted air conditioning. Arrive easily with secure on-site parking.

Lovely family break
We had 5 adults 3 kids from 2-5 yrs old at the property and a dog and it was perfect for all of us. Certainly spacious and comfortable. Some bits were in need of a bit of an update but overall it was great and we would definitely stay again. Great location in close proximity to town and also beautiful beaches.

Comfort and convenience plus.
Apart from Google directing me to the back of the property instead of the laneway at the front, we had a lovely time and my daughter’s two whippets thoroughly enjoyed themselves too.

Overall beautiful house perfect for a group
The house was spacious, equipped with everything you need and in a beautiful setting. Only a couple of minor things to note: Unfortunately the bunk beds were not comfortable for adults to sleep in so two guests had very poor sleeps all week & kept the other person in the room awake to the point we had to move the mattresses to the lounge room. The air con also was not able to be turned up passed 50% fan speed so during the extremely hot days over New Years it was uncomfortable to be anywhere in the house.

Great house for families with little & big kids
Everyone really enjoyed the arcade game console in the garage and there were so many things to keep the kids entertained in the back of the house whilst the adults enjoyed themselves at the front. Beautiful home at a convenient location! As we pulled out of the driveway, one of the kids said “I miss the house already” and I think we all felt the same. Will definitely come back again.
