Last Listing description (April 2025)

From the deck to the sand in seconds-the finest way to a holidaymaker's heart on this coveted stretch of coastline is on Franklin Parade, where panoramic sea views are served on a shimmering, sunlit platter.

Step in, and up, for a spectacular seaside vibe..


It's the minimalist, industrial-style design that gives this three-bedroom eye-catcher the most impact: stainless steel, soaring pre-cast concrete walls, Western Red Cedar cladding, and sky-high glazing that puts you in front of one incredibly enviable lens.

Drinks on the deck in line with the pines, or balcony BBQ's in sync with the horizon; The Bluff, Granite Isle, and golden sunsets are yours from two very privileged vantage points, as the bay's ever-popular bike-way connects you and the sea seamlessly.

Upstairs, you'll swivel from the balcony's drawcard glow for the 2nd living area and meals zone, warmed by timber floors and a central combustion fire; and you can spill anything over this stainless-steel kitchen bench-top it's as durable as they get against ageless stainless 'Smeg' cooking appliances.

Multi-talented wet areas mean the large downstairs bathroom cleverly balances laundry functionality while above, the crisp 2nd bathroom, behind the kitchen, becomes an ensuite-turn-guest-convenience.

As you'd expect from a luxury stay, sought-after extras include solar efficiency, LED lighting, built-in robes, ducted R/C climate comfort, and ceiling fans to all three double bedrooms.

Any season is a reason to flock to Encounter Bay, and tourist income from a home sleeping up to six with historically good occupancy rates is the valuable payback, if you're willing to share

A lifestyle that also offers a pet-friendly rear garden, flanked in vertical green for space-saving privacy, and a single, secure and separate garage.

Come for the drive, stay for an urban seafront encounter like no other...
