There are so many valuable aspects to this endearing abode: a north-facing 1070sqm (approx.) allotment, an absolute waterfront position, a virtually extinct boat shed, and the chance to re-crown this island jewel with a designer fresh start.

Let's first just sit tight on the sweeping, elevated front deck to contemplate the future of this single-level, 1973-built lightweight for a while - a neat, whitewashed weekender with near infinite views and plenty of holiday spirit left in it yet.

Beneath the sunlit 4-bedroom home's high ceilings and character beams come infinite water views, two bathrooms - one ensuite - a functional kitchen overlooking the casual meals and living area, plus the adaptability of an external studio/garage and attached 'bunkroom.'

A carpeted space that goes above and beyond its sleepover stretch as a generous water-facing guest retreat with deck connectivity and exclusive rear access.

It goes without saying, the boathouse alone is a prize. Imagine, just a few easy steps and no road to cross with the kayak or tinny for a private jetty or boat ramp launch; you'll be one of only a handful to have the privilege.

Summers and winters are equally magic waterside, yet split system air-conditioning and pot belly warmth bring the essential comforts to a shack you could easily call home; more persuasions include an enclosed backyard, rear carport, plumbed rainwater, a water licence, and a lifestyle you could possibly snag for land value…

Yet what price do you put on a rare as hen's teeth boat shed, mooring, water licence, and an almost quarter-acre slice of serenity that layers its calming Lake Alexandrina reflections with diving birdlife and distant views over Goolwa North and Clayton Bay?

The morning and setting sun will always cast an ethereal glow here, yet opportunities like this almost never arise - beat the queues to Batson.
