5 Star Villa Holidays is proud to present Sydney Villa 1012.

     Let the sound of the ocean lull you to sleep in this contemporary family home just 120m from Sydney’s beautiful Balmoral Beach. Recently featured in Home Ideas magazine, this spacious open-plan house is light, airy and designed to capture the ocean breeze. Balmoral Beach enjoys stunning architectural features including an open plan kitchen/dining area that extends to a double height lounge room space with generous seating for the whole family.

     The media unit contains a range of board games for everyone to enjoy. With white walls, polished timber floors and superior finishes throughout, Balmoral Beach is designed to please. The sleek modern kitchen has everything you need to rustle up a meal at home – and the living area opens to the rear of the house so you can eat indoors or out as you choose.

     You’re guaranteed a great night’s sleep in the spacious master retreat, which overlooks the garden and enjoys a generously proportioned double bathroom with wet room area. There are two more double bedrooms, one with a cool loft bed and lounge area that’s perfect for older kids or teens. There’s also a second bathroom with twin sinks, shower and bath.

     A comfortable adult lounge and library/office plus cloakroom and laundry complete the ground floor accommodation. To the front of Balmoral Beach there’s a sun-drenched first floor deck with views towards the beach - an ideal spot to kick back and relax with a coffee or glass of wine. At the rear of the house, a sunny deck (with BBQ) and tranquil garden are the perfect place for younger children to play.

     Make the most of beautiful Balmoral and get outside on the host family’s bikes and scooters. Guests are welcome to use the gym equipment, beach cricket, and other outdoor gear (excluding kayak) in the garage. One of Sydney’s grandest suburbs, Mosman is located just 8kms from the CBD over the Sydney Harbour Bridge.

     It’s a suburb many aspire to live in and once you’re there, there’s little reason to leave, with plenty of shops along Military Road, stunning scenery and even the iconic Taronga Zoo to keep you amused. Balmoral Beach offers a more relaxed atmosphere, with parks, swimming and beachside cafes. It’s tempting to stay at home and get lost in the harbour view from your balcony, but at some point it’s important to leave the house.

     A walk through Mosman is an excellent workout due to the inevitable hill-climbing challenges. There’s a community bus for short trips and plenty of buses into the CBD; or the ferry if you prefer a water crossing. Small clumps of village shops include delicatessens, bakeries and specialty gift stores, while the major shopping precinct is located on Military Road. There’s an array of eateries, with a curious overrepresentation of Thai restaurants. In neighbouring Cremorne you’ll find a cinema which is popular with locals.
