A spacious two-bedroom home above Kelvin Heights, with uninterrupted lake and Queenstown Hill views from two balconies — one with a private spa and BBQ, the other set up for outdoor dining. A gas fireplace and bonus upstairs retreat make this a comfortable stay for up to four guests.
The Space
Enter through the carport and up to the main living level. The second bedroom (queen) and main bathroom sit off the entry hallway, with a further staircase leading to a work space & viewing room — a great spot for kids or some quiet time.
The open-plan living area has a gas fireplace, TV and board games, flowing down to the dining and kitchen area with a six-seat table and full kitchen appliances, plus a laundry tucked behind the kitchen.
Two balconies open off the kitchen: one with a private spa and BBQ, the other set up for outdoor dining for six under a canopy. The master bedroom has a king bed, TV and ensuite.
Bedroom Configuration
Master Bedroom: 1 King bed, ensuite
