The bathroom offers a bath and shower with a separate WC, along with a second shower located in the laundry, providing functional convenience. A freestanding single garage adds secure parking and storage.

Residents can easily enjoy early morning surfing, scenic coastal walks, or relaxing ocean swims. The lively local community amenities including The Junction’s shops, cafes, and eateries, as well as the Beach Hotel for casual dining and socialising, provide a vibrant yet relaxed coastal atmosphere.
