IKON: Our new home

Finally we have completed our move to our new apartment at Pt Arkwright, about 1K from Coolum to the North and our golf/gym at the Hyatt 1k South. A lovely spot with bush and coastal views. Because the back of the building is high we are able to leave our bedroom deck doors open at night and get cooling breezes. Each of the nine apartments in the complex has its own pool and this is a real bonus during this hot summer.
Our dining area is at the back of the top (living) floor and gets bush views whilst from the back top deck you can look down the coast to Maroochydore.
Above the dining area and below looking out to the back (top) deck.
The living area is towards the front deck, which looks out towards the beach and coast just across the road. It is about a 100 metre walk to the surf.
The kitchen is between the living and dining areas and like the whole complex is modern and very nice indeed.

Downstairs are two bedrooms and two bathrooms (master ensuite) and a media room. Below the master bedroom, which has a good deck with bush views.
Below is the media room which we have fitted with a good Hi-Fi system, HD TV and an Apple Mac. This is John's shed.
Below, the guest bedroom, which has a bathroom adjacent and has sliding doors to connect to the media room.
We are loving these new digs and looking forward to an enjoyable year here on The (sometimes) Sunshine Coast.
