Waterfront Family Shack ‘Alkira’ | House in Lunawanna
3 Bedroom House in Lunawanna
About the Space:
Alkira is an original beach shack which overlooks the D’Entrecasteaux Channel on Southern Bruny Island. Many families have spent time holidaying here over the years, and you will be filled with that family shack nostalgia as soon as you step through the front door. It is a small, simple dwelling filled with natural light and all that you’ll need for your stay. Alkira has recently been renovated with a new shower, wood heater and lick of paint, but is still a “shack” at heart.
It is an idyllic haven for couples, families, friends or solo travellers. It offers two bedrooms and a bunk room, a bright coastal bathroom with rain shower, a cosy sun-drenched lounge room, and a fully equipped kitchen and large deck out the front with a barbecue. With incredible views to wake up to and enjoy on the front deck, Alkira promises to create some cherished memories.
The beach is located just out the front of the property, with steps leading down off the main road. It’s perfect for small children at low tide to hunt for crabs, and to wade through ankle deep water if you don’t want to change into your cossie. It’s not unheard of to have this little cove all to yourself.
