About this property

Private Luxury Island Retreat with Panoramic Bay Views

  • Perched high on a private bushland escarpment, Licorice Cottage is a luxury island retreat offering breathtaking panoramic water views across Moreton Bay to Stradbroke, Peel and Lamb Islands. Elevated, secluded and surrounded by native trees and birdlife, the setting is peaceful, private and deeply restorative.

    The light-filled, open-plan living space is framed by floor-to-ceiling windows overlooking the bay, creating a seamless connection between indoors and nature. The main bedroom features a spa bath positioned to take in spectacular water views, while the cosy open loft offers a second queen bed with equally stunning outlooks. Interiors are thoughtfully curated in a modern black-and-white palette, blending understated luxury with warmth and comfort, and complemented by a fireplace, spa, and a carefully selected collection of books and board games for unhurried evenings.

    Designed for guests who value privacy, calm and quality, Licorice Cottage is a place to truly switch off, slow down and revitalise.

    The cottage is located approximately 1.6 km from the ferry and close to the golf club and Corroboree Park, offering a balance of seclusion and convenience. Two bicycles and fishing rods are provided for guest use, and the island features well-regarded dining options, live music, boutique local shops and essential services.

    The property is family-friendly, with children’s books and board games, and a playground and beach just around the block. It is also pet-friendly, with a securely fenced yard and nearby off-leash areas.

    Guests enjoy exclusive use of the entire cottage, making it ideal for couples, families or discerning travellers seeking a refined and private island escape.
