• A two-storey, east-north-west facing home built in the 1960s, just a five-minute walk down to the main beach. 

• The ground floor is besser block construction, with hardy plank above, under a tiled roof that's recently been re-pointed. A gravity-fed water tank services the vegetable garden, and the whole house runs on an inline water filter. 

• While the home was originally entered via the ground floor, the front deck was extended about 15 years ago, so the entrance is now on the first floor through the dining room, an easy walk from the car. 

• The first floor holds the main living area: a kitchen with cork flooring, Tasmanian ash floorboards throughout the rest (bathroom excepted), and generous storage with floor-to-ceiling built-in cupboards. The downstairs laundry includes a shower and toilet, and the garage has a roller door plus rear access to the back garden - via a driveway that's steep but easily manageable. 

• Downstairs, a generous rumpus room houses the wood heater, which warms both that room and the upstairs lounge and bedrooms Firewood is stacked in the garage for easy access. 

• The garden is a highlight, with mature ornamental trees planted by the original owners, an enclosed vegetable garden and a thriving productive collection added by the current owner including custard apple, orange, lemon, lemonade, fig,  feijoa, macadamia and avocado, plus bananas that do well in the sheltered, north-facing position, protected from strong winds by the surrounding trees.
