Likewise, alfresco dining is sure to become a way of life in this area as it embraces the constant sea breezes which sweep up from nearby Bramble Bay, all the while being cocooned by leafy surrounds. This enviable outdoor space provides the perfect spot for supervising children playing in the yard and is sure to host casual weekend barbeques with family and friends alike.
