A game changer for all seasons, this Lakehouse is one of the few that has recently had a certified two car covered carport installed, easily accommodating 2 x 4WDs off the road. No more getting into a hot car or trying to load and unload in the monsoonal rain. There is also a small shed under the carport and a fold-down clothes line off the main entrance.

The deck overlooks the water and is the ideal outdoor entertaining area with a gas BBQ, 2 x 9kg gas bottles, 6-seat aluminium dining suite, large toy box, numerous cherabin pots, 2 x fibreglass eskies, paddles for all the toys, pool noodles, several inflatable pool toys as well as 4 x adult, 2 x youth and 1 x infant life jackets.
