The space
This architecturally designed retreat welcomes you with lush garden surrounds and a seamless flow between the indoor living area and the outdoor entertaining terrace. Inside, the main living area is designed for relaxation with a TV, built-in cabinetry, and stylish furnishings. For those needing to stay productive, a dedicated workspace is thoughtfully integrated into the living zone. Upstairs, a second lounge offers a peaceful retreat with leafy treetop views.

The sleek kitchen is a chef’s delight, complete with stone benchtops, a double-door fridge, modern appliances, and a barista-quality coffee machine. Enjoy casual mornings at the breakfast bar or gather around the formal dining table for eight. For an alfresco experience, step onto the timber deck and fire up the BBQ—then savour your meal at the shaded dining area beside the shimmering pool, the perfect spot to catch Darwin’s breathtaking sunsets.

Upstairs, the bedrooms offer calm and comfort, featuring soft timber floors, contemporary styling, and louvred windows that welcome in natural light and cooling sea breezes. The primary suite includes a queen bed, TV, and private balcony with serene ocean views. A sleek ensuite offers a spa-like experience with a spa bath, rain shower, and double vanity. The second and third bedrooms each include a queen bed, with the second enjoying balcony access and ocean vistas. The fourth bedroom is ideal for kids or friends, set with two king singles that can be configured as a king upon request. These rooms share the modern main bathroom upstairs, while a second full bathroom is located on the ground floor. For added convenience, a full laundry is provided with a washing machine, outdoor drying space, and ironing facilities to help you stay on top of your routine.
