'Summer'/14/106 Mandalay Ave, Nelly Bay, QLD 4819

'Summer' now houses just one generation of the household instead of four, and as such is looking for a new family to fill this impressive residence with fresh memories.

With what is a full-size family home upstairs, and the same downstairs, set in 4282m2 private tropical gardens, you'll always have space for the family and visitors, or perhaps live upstairs and have a caretaker downstairs or use it as an AirBnB.

The home sits on a sloping block, surrounded by mature trees and established gardens, with its own little seasonal creek flowing downhill into Gustav creek on the western side of the block which is absolutely beautiful in wet season, bounded by spectacular paperbarks. The pool area is beautifully landscaped with plenty of room to lounge about or have a pool party.

There's a parking bay at the top of the driveway where you can enter directly to upstairs on the level providing step-free access for all ages and abilities, whilst driveway access down the southern boundary brings you to the double carport on the lower level, which is mostly used as an undercover entertaining area and laundry.

Entering the upper level, the covered north-facing deck runs the length of the house and brings you to the front door into the impressive formal lounge, with its beautiful high timber-lined ceilings. Light fills this room, yet the deck that surrounds it keeps it cool, with windows and doors all round and a spectacular mature tree creating an umbrella of shade over it.

The current owners use the room adjacent as a study, but they are fairly sociable people and somebody needing a quiet work office would have plenty of other spaces to choose from! This room would equally make a good rumpus room or formal dining room. The kitchen is ideal for the family chef, with large gas cooktop, dishwasher, and plenty of storage space, as well as an informal dining area. This opens onto the back deck where spiral stairs provide a shortcut to downstairs.

The master bedroom has a lovely aspect looking out into tree-tops and is air-conditioned with walk-in-wardrobe and ensuite bathroom (shower, toilet, vanity).

There's another large north-facing bedroom which would equally make a very pleasant office, craft room or private sitting room. Two further bedrooms and the family bathroom (corner bath with shower over, vanity and separate toilet adjacent) complete the upper level.

The lower level is accessed either by driving down to it or walking down the curving timber ramped walkway from street level which brings you to the open gardens and covered front patio. There's a very functional kitchenette and living area that open onto the patio as well as the main bedroom with a bathroom (shower, toilet, vanity) located off the hallway between the kitchen and main bedroom. There's another family bathroom with bathtub, vanity and toilet along with two further bedrooms (or other as you choose to use them) towards the back of the lower level, with a dining area or rumpus coming off the kitchen/living and a large room coming off it in the front corner which would make a good theatre room or dark room, although it does benefit from a light well which brings in additional light to a small louvre window which provides ventilation to this semi-underground room.

Bore water keeps the gardens green (there is of course town water and power too) and there's a composting station and shade-house for the keen gardener.

A relaxed family home, 'Summer' is looking for new owners to take over and love this property as much as the current owners do, who will sorely miss it, but it's time for them to down-size.
