What the owner loves abut the home, 'The sheer beauty of nature that surrounded it. The treetops with water glimpses and spectacular sunsets, high enough for the coastal breezes and as a family we walked down the hill in 3 min to a sandy beach for a swim. For 17 years I always felt blessed and nurtured like I was on holiday and that we'd found a location with a wonderful social community yet also so private. This was truly home and I felt safe.''This side of the island is the best, so convenient to the main ferry stop making the commute the shortest on the island by far and the easiest with a family. I loved being half way up the island, in a sunny location with the kindest neighbours who all became friends. There is more community, support and friendship here than anywhere I ever experienced and my children have lifelong friends that they grew up with playing in the street, swimming, being outdoors and being safe and looked after and known by the community. The value of this in itself is priceless.'
