For anyone who needs to hear this today: Anna Swain is selling beautiful 'Seabird' on Lamb Island just off Brisbane, Queensland Australia.
Not familiar with Anna Swain? A glance at her instagram and you'll quickly establish that everything she touches turns to gold, in a beautiful, rustic and relaxed kind of way. And Seabird is no different.
With panoramic views of Moreton Bay, Anna and her husband Andrew moved the property to the island by barge, before turning their hand to the decor.
The house is filled with an eclectic mix of treasures including 120 year-old Egyptian bathroom tiles, solid timber fans and claw-foot tubs as well one-off vintage and antique pieces - all of which come with the house! Everything has been carefully handpicked to ensure life is all about kicking back and soaking up the golden light while watching boats drift by.
While it may sound like an ideal holiday home, good transport links (it's 25 minutes by ferry to Brisbain and an inter-island ferry can whisk you to neighbouring Russell island with its shops and primary school) mean you could also turn it into your year-round dwelling! What a dream for anyone looking for a change of pace!
Ready to take the tour?
Be still, beating heart! So beautiful!
Could you imagine kicking back here? If so, any potential buyers can reach out directly to Anna via her instagram (where you can also see plenty more pictures!) - just saying!
Would you like to view more dreamy island homes today? After all, what are Monday's for, if they're not for dreaming? Take a look at:

Here's to a relaxing start to the week!
Kram!

ReplyDeleteNothing beats photos taken during the golden light of sunset.
ReplyDeleteQueenslanders (the name for this type of home) are so easy to look after. It's just a pine regency board / VJ and paint - no plaster, wallpaper, etc. (usually single skin - so the wall you see on the verandah, is the same timber you'll see in the room behind).
