Inside, natural light fills the living area, while a full kitchen makes cooking effortless. A home office provides a quiet nook for remote days. Step onto the timber deck for a relaxed BBQ, or unwind in the lush backyard for calm moments. With the Botanic Gardens, Urangan Pier, and the airport just a short drive away, all of Hervey Bay’s highlights are close by. Nestled behind a white picket fence and surrounded by swaying palms and native trees, this single-level retreat offers a timeless coastal atmosphere. A winding garden path leads to the front porch—perfect for a quiet morning cuppa. Inside, the light-filled living area welcomes you with earthy tones, calming artwork, and two grey sofas. Whether you're curling up with a book or unwinding with a film on the wall-mounted TV, this area is made for slow moments. Prepare meals with ease in the rustic kitchen, equipped with a fridge, oven, electric stove, and microwave. Enjoy casual bites at the timber breakfast bar or gather around the dining table, which comfortably seats six for shared meals. When the afternoon calls for a little fresh air, step out onto the breezy deck, where a timber dining setting and BBQ await for relaxed alfresco dining. Just beyond, the generous backyard unfolds a private sanctuary of green lawn, tropical foliage, and a swing beneath the trees, offering space for everyone to unwind under the endless blue skies. As night falls, retreat to one of three peaceful bedrooms, each furnished with clothing storage and ceiling fans for a restful sleep. The primary and second bedrooms features a queen bed, and the third includes a bunk with a double base and single top—ideal for kids or friends. The bathroom invites unhurried routines, with a deep soaking tub and walk-in shower, while a separate toilet adds extra convenience. The full laundry is tucked away but easily accessible, with a washer, drying rack, and generous bench space to make longer stays feel effortless. Stay productive in the home office with a quiet desk nook and ergonomic chair by the sunlit window, or settle into the armchair for a peaceful read. Stay cool with split-system air conditioning in the living area and ceiling fans throughout. Off-street parking for up to three vehicles is available in the driveway and carport, making arrivals and departures stress-free. During your stay, you and your group will have the entire house to yourselves. Please make yourselves at home! This home places you in a peaceful pocket of Scarness, just a nine-minute stroll from the vibrant Esplanade. There, enjoy Italian pizza at La Bella, sip cocktails at Bar Soma, share a seafood platter with ocean views at Enzo’s on the Beach, or indulge in fine dining at Odyssey Bistro. From the Esplanade, step onto the golden sands of Torquay Beach—a local favourite for a morning swim or surf. A 15-minute walk takes you to Pialba Place for essentials, or a five-minute drive brings you to Stockland Hervey Bay for a wider range of shops. Drive seven minutes to the Botanic Gardens, where tranquil walking paths wind through native flora and birdlife. The historic Urangan Pier, ideal for fishing or soaking in sea views, is only nine minutes away, with Reef World Aquarium and Hervey Bay Airport both reachable within ten minutes. Due to local regulations, we can happily host you for up to 90 nights. Any bookings that exceed this duration will be cancelled by Vrbo. ## Property amenities ### Beach - Beach nearby ### Internet - Available in the cottage: WiFi ### Parking and transport - Parking on site ### Kitchen - Cookware, dishware, and utensils - Hob - Microwave - Oven - Refrigerator - Toaster ### Dining - Dining table ### Bedrooms - 3 bedrooms - Bedsheets provided ### Bathroom - 1 bathroom - Towels provided ### Living spaces - Dining table - Living room ### Outdoor areas - Barbecue grill - Patio ### Laundry - Laundry facilities - Washing machine ### Work spaces - Desk ### Comfort - Air conditioning ### Pets - No pets allowed ### Suitability/Accessibility - Smoke-free property ### Services and conveniences - Iron/ironing board ### Safety features - Carbon monoxide detector not reported (host has not indicated whether there is a carbon monoxide detector on the property; consider bringing a portable detector) - Smoke detector (host has indicated there is a smoke detector on the property) ### General - Unit size: 1,292 square feet ## Similar properties ![Terrace/patio](https://images.trvl-media.com/lodging/118000000/117400000/117399400/117399385/5ae5ef4d.jpg?impolicy=fcrop&w=469&h=201&p=1&q=medium) ### Brand New 2BR Coastal Home w/ Outdoor Entertaining – 350m to Beach, Pier & cafes Scarness - Kitchen - Washer - Free WiFi - Air conditioning 10 Exceptional 8 reviews [](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Hotel-Search?startDate=2025-10-29&endDate=2025-10-30&selected=117399385&PinnedHotelID=117399385&HadPinnedHotel=true®ionId=-1&adults=2) ![Interior](https://images.trvl-media.com/lodging/103000000/102800000/102792300/102792267/3163674f.jpg?impolicy=fcrop&w=469&h=201&p=1&q=medium) ### 600m to esplanade - Spacious + Everything you need Pialba - Kitchen - Washer - Dryer - Air conditioning 9.4 Exceptional 8 reviews [](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Hotel-Search?startDate=2025-10-29&endDate=2025-10-30&selected=102792267&PinnedHotelID=102792267&HadPinnedHotel=true®ionId=-1&adults=2) ![Beach nearby, beach towels](https://images.trvl-media.com/lodging/5000000/4720000/4714900/4714855/902cd492.jpg?impolicy=fcrop&w=469&h=201&p=1&q=medium) ### BreakFree Great Sandy Straits Urangan - Pool - Kitchen - Parking included - Air conditioning 8.4 Very good 720 reviews [](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Hotel-Search?startDate=2025-10-29&endDate=2025-10-30&selected=4714855&PinnedHotelID=4714855&HadPinnedHotel=true®ionId=-1&adults=2) ![Outdoor dining](https://images.trvl-media.com/lodging/82000000/81140000/81136800/81136759/512bd5d9.jpg?impolicy=fcrop&w=469&h=201&p=1&q=medium) ### Torquay Treasure - Located in beautiful Hervey Bay less than 100m walk to the beach Torquay - Washer - Dryer - Free WiFi - Outdoor space £511 includes taxes & fees 22 Oct - 23 Oct [](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Hotel-Search?startDate=2025-10-22&endDate=2025-10-23&selected=81136759&PinnedHotelID=81136759&HadPinnedHotel=true®ionId=-1&adults=2) ![Beach nearby](https://images.trvl-media.com/lodging/35000000/34010000/34006300/34006292/622ffd84.jpg?impolicy=fcrop&w=469&h=201&p=1&q=medium) ### Duk 'n' Willa Beach Cottage Pialba - Kitchen - Washer - Dryer - Pet-friendly 9.2 Wonderful 56 reviews [](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Hotel-Search?startDate=2025-10-29&endDate=2025-10-30&selected=34006292&PinnedHotelID=34006292&HadPinnedHotel=true®ionId=-1&adults=2) ![On the beach, beach towels](https://images.trvl-media.com/lodging/106000000/105600000/105593300/105593233/ce8feb40.jpg?impolicy=fcrop&w=469&h=201&p=1&q=medium) ### Vila Paus Dua - Beachfront Hervey Bay Urangan - Sea view - Kitchen - Washer - Dryer 10 Exceptional 12 reviews £164 includes taxes & fees 22 Oct - 23 Oct [](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Hotel-Search?startDate=2025-10-22&endDate=2025-10-23&selected=105593233&PinnedHotelID=105593233&HadPinnedHotel=true®ionId=-1&adults=2) ![Fridge, microwave, oven, stovetop](https://images.trvl-media.com/lodging/70000000/69290000/69280500/69280457/d1331c4b.jpg?impolicy=fcrop&w=469&h=201&p=1&q=medium) ### Ideal base 4 Whale Watching.Private deck/BBQ/AC.
