With a fire (on wetback) and heat pump the house is warm in winter and cool in summer. Further features include a laundry room, separate toilet, and ample storage space. The primary suite boasts doors opening onto the large partially covered deck, positioned to be enjoyed anytime of the day and boasting amazing vista over the garden.
A short stroll through the beautiful garden leads you to the relocated schoolhouse which serves as a self-contained accommodation. Retaining its original chalkboard and hooks for school bags, it is filled with charm and character. With living space, kitchen area, bathroom and two bedroom spaces, one a loft/mezzanine style, makes it ideal for guests seeking their own space or a B&B setup. The log fire ensures the schoolhouse remains cosy and comfortable year-round.
Outdoor storage options include a double garage and a woodshed discreetly tucked away within the hedge. Established garden and hedging create privacy, peacefulness, and shelter, and there is so much birdlife and bird song.
Fruit and nut trees are planted as well as a vegetable patch. The garden maximises the use of space, with seating areas and a charming hole in the hedge that reveals stunning ocean views over Gore Bay.
