Why we LOVE 51 Westlake Drive…

- It’s obvious how much love & care has gone into creating this stunning sanctuary. Pathways, steps and strategically designed landscaping connect various zones of the property, from the house, carport & additional parking area to the rustic timber workshop, resort style pool & fire pit area with built-in seating. With cooler, dryer weather ahead, now is the perfect time to enjoy toasting marshmallows & telling stories as you gather with family & friends around a crackling fire

- Versatile layout, designed for relaxed, flexible indoor/outdoor family living, this home’s floor plan features a large open plan living zone with galley kitchen flanked by an expansive timber deck in the treetops on one side & a massive outdoor entertaining area at the rear protected from the elements and overlooking the pool. In addition, underneath the house is multi-purpose living space with its own entry. It offers a living area and kitchenette, 2 separate rooms, a 2nd bathroom & abundant storage, making this the perfect teen/young adult retreat or guest accommodation (you’re bound to have plenty of visitors wanting to stay when your property is this good)! There’s also a garden shed, timber workshop or kids cubby area, double bay carport & a cleared area towards front corner of block that would be ideal to park your boat, trailer, caravan or consider options for a larger shed to be installed (subject to council approval)

- The warmth & character of the interiors captures the essence of hinterland living. Soaring raked ceilings fitted with brushed stainless steel ceiling fans, a sunken lounge area, exposed timber beams & beautifully maintained polished timber floors combine to create a warm, welcoming ambience. Wide expanses of glass & skylights bathe the home in natural light & invite the leafy surrounds in for a gorgeous tranquil outlook from every window

- Galley style kitchen with servery. With road-side fruit & veggie stalls dotted throughout The Leap year-round & certified organic produce readily available, you will enjoy cooking up your fresh, seasonal produce in your galley style kitchen. Timber accents offset the laminate cabinetry & benchtops & a servery connects the kitchen to the terrace for easy entertaining. The kitchen is also well-connected to the living/dining area so you will always be part of the conversation. The laundry is conveniently located adjacent to the kitchen with direct outdoor access

- Bedroom wing with extra study/nursery space off the master. The 3 bedrooms to the top floor are privately tucked away in a separate wing off a central hallway. All bedrooms are spacious, carpeted, have built-in robes (walk-in to master), ceiling fans, raked ceilings & a tranquil leafy outlook. The main bathroom features slate tiling, floating vanity, separate bath & glass-screened shower recess. The master bedroom has direct access to the bathroom for a semi-ensuite feel, along with connecting to a separate balcony with a lush outlook over the trees & a study/home office/nursery/multi-purpose room at the rear that looks out to private garden zone…visited by the occasional rock wallaby. Work from home? Imagine how focused you would be amongst this beautiful natural setting!

- The incredible resort style, saltwater pool with rock wall waterfall feature. Looking more like a natural rock pool at the base of a gently flowing waterfall than a man-made structure, this pool will have you feeling like you’re holidaying in a luxury tropical resort. Enjoy a BBQ on the terrace while keeping a watchful eye on the kids as they have fun in the pool. Sandstone steps also easily connects the pool zone to the gardens and lush green lawns, making it ideal for entertaining & for families with children looking for opportunities for them to enjoy quality time outdoors playing & exploring

Why we LOVE The Leap...

- City convenience, country lifestyle, with only a 15-minute drive to Mount Pleasant. The Leap is convenient for all your work, school & day-to-day needs, yet you can enjoy its stunning rural/hinterland backdrop & relaxed pace

- The iconic Leap Hotel is a well-known pub that attracts visitors from near & far for its laid-back hospitality, cold pints & hearty meals. Another option is The Leap Tea Room, nestled in the shadow of Mt Mandurana, which offers various fresh sweet & savoury options to complement your browsing at Yakapari Country Craft

- The Leap Climb can be viewed from 7 Herbert & is a favourite track with local hikers, runners & walkers. You will be rewarded for your effort to get to the top of the mountain with incredible views of the hinterland, coast & distant ocean

- Proximity to beaches & national parks. You’re well-placed for a day out on the water at The Leap, with the small holiday & fishing town of Seaforth not far away. Also worth a visit are the picturesque beach community of Ball Bay & the beautiful natural environment of the Cape Hillsborough National Park. This stunning area is known for its wildlife… particularly wallabies & kangaroos which frequent the beach at sunrise, along with its various walking tracks & volcanic boulders. You could even try walking across to the island at low tide

- Fresh seasonal produce including road-side fruit & vegie stalls around The Leap throughout the year, along with the Organic & Natural Store with Café - the region’s only fully certified organic store offering the largest range of organic fresh foods
