SOLD FIRST WEEKEND - MULTIPLE OFFERS - BY NICK FRENCH, C&CO REAL ESTATE!The Islands is a world class, luxury resort-style apartment complex sitting right on South Beach, with only the sand dunes between you and the water. The complex is mostly comprised of luxury apartments, but this is one of only 6 adjacent beach houses with Beach house 24 sharing only a single common wall. This 2 bedroom, 2 bathroom property is elegantly luxurious, and has a peaceful serenity enhanced by its own gorgeous courtyard garden. Light streams in from all directions, and there's a glorious winter warmth from north-facing glass doors. The owners picked this property quickly off the plan as it has a number of unique features. Firstly, your timber-panelled entry gate opens into a perfectly landscaped courtyard garden. For a property by the beach this is special! It's spacious and private, with mature ornamental pear trees providing shade and beauty.

Leading up from the car bays, you have your very own stairwell, which leads straight to your courtyard. Lastly, the beach house itself has the perfect layout.
