About this property

Tranquil retreat with spectacular views over Andersons Inlet

Our 4-bedroom house is situated on a large peaceful block, within walking distance to Fisherman’s Jetty and a short drive (or longer walk) from Beach No 5. In this magical spot, you can enjoy views across Andersons Inlet from the large outdoor dining table or lounge on the deck, or while enjoying a drink at the old barrel on the veranda. You’ll be entertained by kangaroos and a huge range of birds while you relax.

Inside, there is a cosy lounge/dining area in which to relax with friends and family, where you can enjoy a log burning fire in the winter or the cool fans/aircon in summer. The kitchen is well stocked with pots and pans, and has an electric hob and air fryer oven (note, there is no standard oven). You’ll also have access to a microwave and the barbecue on the deck outside.

The property has recently been redecorated from top to bottom, and repainted outside. Like all houses in Venus Bay, it runs on tank water and a septic tank.

Relaxing escape

We had an incredible stay at this welcoming home. The indoor fireplace and outdoor firepit are a cosy highlight, and the stunning view with wildlife, including kangaroos, made it unforgettable. It’s a peaceful, clean, and well-equipped retreat. Both our families had a wonderful break. The hosts were extremely hospitable and helpful. We can’t wait to return!
