About this home

This gorgeous Bowen cottage sits just one back from waterfront, right behind the Mt Gardner government dock and neighbouring beaches of Galbraith Bay. Nearly 11-and-a-half acres of gorgeous forest, with flat spaces and stunning ocean views. Inside is well-maintained, cute and cozy, with an open plan LR/DR/Kitchen, office/den, primary bedroom above, and kids bed nooks off a fun rec room. Detached studio for man-cave or she-shed includes fireplace and bathroom. Wrap around decks take advantage of the views of Hutt and Gambier Islands, as well as the sunsets above the Sunshine Coast beyond. Properties rarely come up for sale along this stretch of Bowen, especially ones of this size. Please ask about available mooring buoy to be included.
