For cosy cabin vibes on a hard-to-find quarter acre (1091 sqm approx), hope is at long last found in an immaculate ranch-style home with a bonus backyard retreat barely 2 blocks from Encounter Bay's favourite Parade.

Beachfront Franklin that is, and its spoils including Yilki Store and the Beach House Cafe - before or after a Bluff climb, Granite Island wander or Encounter Bike-way family bike ride - all close enough to call your own.

As a long or short-term rental, AirBNB or private beach-side base, it thrills with a long lawned setback and convenient boat, caravan, or guest-friendly driveway parking ahead of unique 3-bedroom accommodation overwhelming in warmth and originality.

If your opinions are divided on the décor - whitewash it! There's something special about a home characterised by vaulted timber ceilings, lead-light, exposed brickwork, and a few mod-cons thrown in to really lift its appeal, summer or winter.

Case in point: the rear kitchen gleams in contrasting all new stainless-steel appliances, while the home takes seasonal advantage of Daikin split system comfort and full wall and ceiling insulation.

Outside, the separate and fully lined 3rd bedroom/retreat toys with a mix of uses as sleepover space, a billiards room or home office, and treating guests equally indoors and out, it hosts a private 2nd bathroom.

Retirees, investors, couples or families looking to find a valuable foothold along the south coast - Encounter Bay is the Holy Grail of holiday destinations, you need only scour booking sites like Stayz to see its reviews.

Review it in your time, in your home; 34 Hope says you can.
