	Sit back indoors or on the deck and watch the waves crash against the cliffs. Take a walk on a pristine surf beach right in front of the house. At dusk watch the kangaroos bound across the farmland. Come for the sea breeze and the long sun-filled days of summer, or come during winter for the crisp sea air and the warm fireside. Mortons by the Sea will turn even the shortest break into a real holiday getaway, no matter what the season.

Property Description:
The location of this modern, two-storey house is quite simply exceptional. More than that, the architectural design has capitalised on every aspect of the setting. The main upstairs living space, which incorporates the kitchen and dining areas, is flanked on both sides by large decks. The south deck faces Sunderland Bay with awesome coast and ocean views. This deck is built with frameless glass balustrade panels so the view is maximised from inside the house as well. The master bedroom also opens out onto this deck through a full-length glass door with a matching window. The sunny north deck overlooks coastal bush and farmland. It's set up for outdoor entertaining with table and padded chairs, market umbrella and barbecue.

The living area makes abundant use of white - in the sloped ceiling, the built in kitchen is white with stainless steel bench tops, and the leather lounge furniture is white. Brilliant yellow on the walls adds a touch of sunny colour. Above the built in wood fire hangs a watercolour of the actual bay outside. The rest of the furniture is sleek and modern.

A second living room is located downstairs along with two further bedrooms, bathroom, laundry and sunroom. The backyard is fully fenced.

Boutique Gallery located next door.
