This is a unique cute self contained property in a private, secure beach Resort.
This is in a gated community with it's own swimming pool, tennis court, carpark plus much more. Relax in your own little cottage garden with garden shed and even grow a few veges. Covered outdoor space, heatpump & own carpark.
It is mostly occupied by retired residents who all enjoy this safe, quiet neighborhood so would be ideal for a single mature adult looking for a quiet, safe & friendly environment or anyone wanting the same thing. Close to beach, bus stop & dairy. Furnished part or full or unfurnished options.
