When it's time for the parents to escape to their own retreat, they will revel in the luxurious master suite. Featuring an ensuite with both a shower and bath and a spacious fitted walk-in robe, while the real showstopper here is the private balcony, offering sea views that unfold in a serene panorama. This luxurious space truly comes to life once the kids are in bed – imagine kicking back with your favourite frosty concoction, inhaling the heady scent of the nearby gum trees, while gazing up at the stars and listening to the waves roll in. A separate studio at the rear offers a boost in income, or a cozy space for grown up kids or extended family. With its own entrance for privacy, it comprises a large bedroom, a well-equipped galley-style stone topped kitchen within a large living/dining space, a bright bathroom, and its own front verandah for relaxing within the park-like setting. Moments from beachside living and acres of bush reserve, Whitebridge is one of those close-knit communities that residents hold onto tightly.
