About this property
Lakefront Retreat with Private Beach & Water Toys
All guests are welcomed with a bottle of SA wine and chocolate
Get ready to take your Encounter Lakes getaway up a notch in this spacious lakefront property, with easy access to a privately shared sandy beach! Imagine having your own water playground to enjoy peacefully or get active.
This fabulously positioned large family home offers plenty of indoor and outdoor entertaining spaces for your family and friends to spread out and relax over one level, whilst enjoying the lake views. You’re within walking distance of the local cafes, the seafront and venture a little further along the flat bike path into the Victor Harbor township.
Enter through the hallway, past the casual lounge with large screen TV, and you're drawn to the light filled open-plan living space, casual meals and the kitchen. Cook up a storm in this pristine white kitchen featuring an island bench, Belling freestanding oven, soft closing drawers, Miele dishwasher and a huge walk-in pantry. And for the larger groups, there are more spaces to enjoy, a living room with full view of the lake and garden, a covered pergola perfect for taking in the outdoors, and another rumpus room. Wow, you can try a different room throughout the day and your stay!
Enjoy other features include big screen tvs, Wi-Fi internet, Netflix, timber floating floors in hallways and living area, and carpets in the bedroom.
For water activities, there’s 3 kayaks (1 child, 1 adult, 1 double) and 1 SUP (stand up paddleboard) available for guest use (with 2 large, 2 medium, 3 small life jackets).
There’s 4 good sized bedrooms serviced by 2 bathrooms, so everyone gets their privacy and space. The master bedroom is a retreat in itself, with lake views, walk-in robe and newly renovated ensuite bathroom. The 3 other bedrooms have built-in robes. All year round comfort is provided with ducted reverse cycle air-conditioning in all living and bedrooms.
Bed Configuration:
Bedroom 1: Queen (sleeps 2)
Bedroom 2: Twin (sleeps 2)
Bedroom 3: Twin - staggered bunk (sleeps 2)
Bedroom 4: Queen (sleeps 2)
The beds will be freshly made for guest arrival with sheets, pillowcases, and quilt covers. Bath towels, mats, hand towels, and tea towels are all supplied.
