Listing # OPA31322 | Listed on 4 February

Set mid-slope on the Redcliffs hillside, this beautifully presented family home enjoys an elevated position with sweeping estuary views extending across the ocean. Positioned for optimal sun, natural shelter and a generous, private landholding create a setting that feels both open and protected, enhancing everyday living and outdoor enjoyment.

Designed with modern family life in mind, the home centres around a spacious open-plan kitchen, dining and living area. The contemporary kitchen offers generous bench space, quality appliances and a well-appointed butler's pantry with additional sink, making it ideal for both daily routines and entertaining. A separate upstairs lounge adds flexibility, whether for quieter living, a teenage retreat or a practical work-from-home space.

Accommodation is thoughtfully configured with four generous bedrooms and three bathrooms, including two ensuites, allowing comfort and privacy for families, guests or multigenerational living. The layout balances connection and separation with ease, ensuring the home adapts effortlessly over time.

Recent extensive internal and external upgrades to current codes provide peace of mind alongside modern presentation, including recladding in lightweight concrete panels on a cavity system and new aluminium joinery with extensive thermally broken Low-E double glazing.

Outdoor living is a standout feature. Established landscaping frames a rare, expansive level lawn for hillside living, while new deck and patio areas extend the living spaces outdoors, ideal for entertaining, play or quiet retreat. Northerly and westerly aspects draw sun throughout the home and grounds, enhancing warmth, light and outlook.

Year-round comfort is well supported by a gas fire, heat pumps and extensive double glazing. Practical features include a separate laundry, excellent drive-in access, internal-access garaging, generous basement storage and a large flat driveway with space for additional vehicles, recreational equipment and a boat.

Positioned in a sought-after coastal pocket, the home enjoys easy access to beaches, cafes, bars and scenic valley walks while still close to the CBD, reinforcing a lifestyle defined by coastal living and community connection.

Our owners have cherished this family home, but a move north now presents a compelling opportunity to secure a refined coastal residence of scale, comfort and enduring appeal.
