With spectacular coastal views and stunning sunsets, this family friendly holiday home sits proudly on the hill above the charming Fleurieu Peninsula township and can be enjoyed all year round.

Set on 5000 square metres of landscaped gardens, this modern home provides the ultimate in holiday accommodation. With a tennis court and 15 metre long infinity pool the options are endless for either the energetic or for those that just want to relax and soak up the stunning environment, the remarkable sunsets and fresh sea breezes.

The house features 5 bedrooms and three bathrooms (complete with bidets) and is the perfect size for couples and families who want to get away and share a holiday together.
