116 Western Road, Macleay Island, Qld 4184

Life moves to a different beat on Macleay Island. The ultimate soul-soothing sea-change and tree-change wrapped in one, the stresses of modern life melt away from the minute you step ashore. And now, your rare opportunity has arrived to live amongst nature's untouched splendour and serenity in a friendly community. Cherished by the same owners for 38 years, this happy haven on a 936m2 waterfront block is ready for its next chapter to be written.

Spanning three solidly built levels, stunning views and character-rich interiors are ever-present throughout. A cosy lounge room with fireplace emulates this, complemented by exposed timber beam ceilings that extend into the adjoining kitchen and dining zone. Two bathrooms are also featured, with the floorplan cleverly configured to spread four bedrooms and three living areas across each level. If you're seeking a seaside holiday home, the robust structure also includes external shutters, offering “lock-and-leave” peace of mind. No matter your choice, a firm foundation is already in place, meaning you'll only need to make a few cosmetic touches to modernise and make this magnificent property your own.

It's the outdoors, however, that will truly steal your heart. From carefree days spent fishing, kayaking, sailing or catching fresh mud crabs for dinner (and from your very own backyard) to pottering amongst the camellias in the garden paradise, to sunset cocktails and conversations on the wraparound verandah, this place reignites connection and an adventurous spirit.

Situated 45 minutes Brisbane and nestled in the pristine Moreton Bay Marine Park, Macleay Island is a charming country town – yet it's surrounded by tranquil waters. Rich with community spirit and renowned for its natural beauty and thriving creativity, all essential amenities are here. Restaurants, coffee shops and clubs provide a variety of cuisines to tempt your taste buds, coupled with shopping villages, artisan markets, recreation parks, art galleries, childcare, medical and emergency services. A primary school is also on the island, with mainland school options easily accessible. Many people commute daily for work, school or leisure via ferries and barges to Redland Bay where a comprehensive public transport network and secure car parking facility await.

Life's simple pleasures are all here – the only thing missing is you. Embrace a whole new world of waterfront tranquillity.
