First time on the market in over 30 years, this much-loved family home was built by the current owners in 1996 and was one of the very first homes established in this tightly held coastal enclave. Cherished and enjoyed for three decades, opportunities like this - offering direct beach access - are incredibly rare and seldom come to market.

Privately positioned down a quiet lane, 9 Driftwood Lane presents an exceptional coastal retreat where space, privacy, and lifestyle come together effortlessly. Set on a generous 821m2 section with ample off-street parking and room for a boat or caravan, this is a home designed for relaxed seaside living.

Built by the current owners, the residence offers four generously proportioned double bedrooms, including a well-appointed master suite with walk-in robe, double glazing, and an ensuite bathroom. The ensuite is cleverly designed with dual access to the toilet - functioning as a private ensuite while also serving as a convenient guest toilet from the hallway. A full family bathroom is located downstairs, complete with a separate shower and bath.

The heart of the home features a timeless kitchen flowing through to a picturesque dining area and substantial living space, creating an inviting setting for both everyday living and entertaining. Two sun-drenched balconies capture all-day sun, while the in-ground swimming pool sets the scene for memorable summer gatherings. Fully fenced front grounds provide privacy and security for families and guests alike.

Year-round comfort is assured with two heat pumps, two panel heaters, and a gas fire adding warmth and ambience. A separate laundry and double internal-access garage complete this impressive offering.
