The house

Completed in late 2015, Allawah has indoor and outdoor living spaces across two levels connected by a free-form steel staircase. The open-plan kitchen includes a butler's pantry, and the master bedroom has an ensuite and ocean views through the home's interior. A rumpus room with an Atari gaming table opens onto a sheltered private courtyard. A north-facing ground-level sun deck has an outdoor lounge and bean bags, with native eucalyptus providing privacy on the street side.

The three bedrooms contain a king bed, a queen bed, and a single bed plus a bunk bed respectively. Linen is provided. Facilities include reverse-cycle air conditioning, heating, a double lock-up garage, BBQ, garden, outdoor seating, Foxtel/cable TV, DVD player, books and games. The kitchen has a coffee maker, dishwasher, microwave, oven, refrigerator and toaster. A dryer, bathtub, shower, hot water and smoke detector are also provided. Children aged 2–12 and infants under two are welcome.

The Otway forest is behind the home, Lorne Country Club is a short stroll away, and the beach is a 500 m walk away. A different route leads into the town centre. The home is professionally managed with local 24/7 support.
