Red Apple Retreat | St Helens
3 Bedrooms | 1.5 Bathrooms | 6 Guests
Perched on the hillside above St Helens, Red Apple Retreat looks out over the marina and across the bay. It's a relaxed three bedroom home with views from every bedroom, a wood heater for cool evenings, and a backyard orchard of apples, apricots, nashi pears and limes – yours to pick when in season. It's a short drive to the cafes, restaurants and waterfront of town, with plenty of room for families or two couples.
Set high on the hillside above St Helens, Red Apple Retreat takes in beautiful views across the marina, Georges Bay and the township below.
This three bedroom home is made for easy East Coast stays, with a wood fire for cooler evenings, generous bedrooms across two levels and a backyard orchard that gives the property its name.
Downstairs, the lounge is a comfortable place to settle in, with a Smart TV, wood heater and views drawing your eye outside. The adjoining kitchen has everything needed for a stay away, including a fridge, freezer and Nespresso coffee machine, with ground coffee also provided.
The downstairs double bedroom enjoys its own beautiful outlook and includes a built in wardrobe. The main bathroom has a bath, separate shower and vanity, with a separate toilet nearby. A dedicated laundry includes both a washing machine and dryer.
Head upstairs to two light filled bedrooms overlooking St Helens.
The queen bedroom features a built in wardrobe and gorgeous views across the bay. In winter, warmth from the wood heater flue rises through the upper level, making this an especially cosy part of the home.
The king bedroom is spacious and inviting, with a king size bed, built in wardrobe and its own reading nook positioned to enjoy the outlook - a lovely spot to slow down with a coffee or book.
There is a third level to the property, the top of the A frame home with a study desk, tv and couch. A hang out space perfect for yoga, relaxing and a nap in the sunshine.
Step outside and you’ll find one of Red Apple Retreat’s most special features. The backyard is home to an established orchard of apple trees, apricots, nashi pears and limes. When they’re fruiting, guests are welcome to wander through and pick something fresh from the tree.
A carport is also available for off-street parking.
With water views from each bedroom, a crackling wood fire in winter and fresh fruit waiting in the garden when the season is right, Red Apple Retreat offers a relaxed St Helens stay with plenty of character.
