With 180-degree views over Kingscote shores and Nepean Bay, it's hard to decide if this 4-bedroom house is your ideal family home or a luxurious beach house – perhaps it's both!
This spacious 2008-built property is unique and can't be compared to the average Kingscote home in so many ways.
If location is king, then this house must be crowned as one of the best in Kingscote, with uninterrupted views from the mainland windfarms at Rapid Bay to the Cygnet River mouth, and a 30m frontage to take best advantage of the spectacular views.
With four bedrooms, a separate office, sunroom and 80m2 of living area tiled in quality Italian ceramic tiles, this house is larger than it looks from the street – and that's just where the story starts.
The hidden extras at this property are extensive. Under-floor heating throughout the combined lounge, dining and kitchen provides ambient winter comfort and a separate system heats the en-suite floor – all supported by an 8kw solar system with 32 panels on the north-facing rear roof.
Reverse cycle air-conditioner in the sun-room will keep you cool, complemented by ceiling fans in each room.
All internal walls are lined with acoustic insulation and the doors are solid, creating a calm and quiet environment and privacy for each room. All timber in the construction has been termite-proofed.
A brand new gas demand hot water system supplies the bathrooms and a 22,000 litre rainwater tank is plumbed to the house.
The main bedroom with its bay window is designed to maximise views and comfort. It has a new walk-in robe and an en-suite that is larger than most conventional bathrooms. There are no glass shower screens to clean, with a huge walk-through shower and choice of two shower styles – conventional and rain shower heads.
Three more generous bedrooms all have built-in cupboards and a large linen press completes the ample storage.
The second bathroom has a full-sized bath and a separate toilet with handbasin. A third toilet off the laundry means you and your guests will never be caught short!
This split-level home flooded with natural light features a stunning stone wall to divide levels. Clean but interesting internal angles accommodate the shape of the 873m2 block and the soothing neutral palette throughout is just waiting for you to add your own style and colour. A raked ceiling in the living area and 9-foot (2.7m) ceilings in every room add to your sense of space and comfort.
The kitchen and living area are newly repainted and refurbished, as are the en-suite and the outside. In many ways, this home presents as a new house.
The fourth bedroom is currently disposed as a second office, with views on to the garden creating a perfect work-from-home scenario.
Outside amenities are also taken care of with an established ultra-private rear garden. Separate pergola, a carport under the main roof, a 4m x 6m storage shed (with power), screening trees and custom-built retaining walls provide privacy and utility. Fruit trees and a vegetable garden with raised beds and interesting spaces will please gardeners.
Lifestyle benefits extend beyond the property, with easy access to the Kingscote foreshore walking/cycling path just over the road and a choice of beaches to exercise and walk. The main street of Kingscote is just a 15-minute walk or three-minute drive, and the Kangaroo Island Yacht Club is even closer.
