About this property

The Gooldives—Sun, Sea & Space for Everyone

Relaxed, sunlit and perfectly designed for coastal living, this two-level home blends fresh white interiors with natural textures and open, flowing spaces.

The main living area upstairs invites you to unwind beside the slow-combustion fireplace, with wide glass doors framing leafy outlooks and gentle sea breezes. The open-plan layout connects the lounge, dining and kitchen—ideal for shared meals and easy entertaining. The kitchen is fully equipped with modern appliances, including a full-size fridge, dishwasher and Nespresso machine, providing everything you need to cook, chat and connect. The adjoining balcony extends the living space outdoors, where alfresco dining and a relaxed sitting area make it the perfect spot for morning coffee or sunset drinks. The fully fenced backyard offers plenty of room for pets and children to play, with a firepit ready for cosy evenings under the stars.

Upstairs are three bedrooms: the primary with a queen bed and calm sitting nook, a second queen bedroom bathed in natural light, and a third bedroom with a double-over-single tri-bunk. A bathroom with a walk-in shower and a separate linen nook completes this level.

Downstairs, a spacious second living area doubles as a games room—perfect for kids, teens or relaxed family nights. Here, a ping pong table, board games and a comfortable lounge create an easygoing hub for fun and downtime. The fourth bedroom includes two bunk beds and sits alongside a bathroom with a spa bath and a full laundry complete with a washer and storage space.

Parking is provided on the driveway with one undercover space beneath the carport.
