42A Ainslie Roberts Drive, Encounter Bay, SA 5211

Grab a book - you'll need it. With two sundecks and a sea breeze just two streets back from Franklin Parade, this 4-bedroom holiday ace sets an easy weekend benchmark that'll be very hard to beat.

Timeless neutrals blanket the home's smart coastal style, the footprint large enough for the family, and practical enough to lock up or lease out, surmising low-care fulfilment wrapped in a low-care allotment.

And whether you need every carpeted bedroom or not, they'll have versatility covered. Perhaps you'll park the laptop in one, the grandkids in another, while your master bedroom stands quietly alone not just for its built-in robes and ensuite, but for its priority access to the central deck.

Two decks mean twice the sunlight and more reasons to step outside and relax.

Wine, dine and entertain in split system comfort with a well-equipped kitchen hosting all-electric stainless appliances and a prep island, or spill outdoors for the screened all-seasons deck, cushioned by established border plants, and requiring little more from you other than choosing the BBQ menu.

Favour a bike ride over driving - the car is safe in the secure garage - or take your morning jog with Granite Island over one shoulder, The Bluff on the way back; this is how Encounter Bay rolls.

When easy is everything, make it a daybedder's dream by the bay, and be the star of every summer.

There's more on offer than a sea breeze:
Modern timber-clad family design
Invaluable position 2 streets from the beach
