About this house rental
"Turnstone" was designed by renowned coastal architect and surfing filmmaker Paul Witzig and is a stunning house purposed designed and built for its wonderful location and beautifully fitted and furnished.
Turnstone sits on Porky Point King Island with close up views of the Southern swells. The sea is on three sides and all rooms have ocean views. See sea eagles from your bedroom.
It is a short drive to the new Ocean Dunes Golf Course and about 30 minutes to Cape Wickham.
The famed Cheese factory and Dairy is a kilometre away. The airport is ten minutes drive and Currie, where there are supermarkets and arrange of shops including a pharmacy and newsagent and Post office, is 20 minute drive. The local hospital and GP are also located in Currie.
The ocean right out front is full of crayfish and abalone. Many varieties of fish are caught right off the beach in front and of course all round the Island
For Bird lovers there is an abundance of life on the beach in front . The house is named after the Ruddy Turnstone which can be seen seasonally on Little Porky Beach. Pied Oyster catchers are a favourite. Sea Eagles are spectacular visitors
Winter guests can enjoy the ambience of the Jindara wood heater. Wood is supplied. Nobo electric wall heaters too warm up the double glazed house in winter. Big sliding doors and ceiling fans provide comfort on the warmest days of summer.
The house is designed for passive solar living and is cool in summer and warm in winter. There is a large ground mounted solar array that supplies the house with power backed up by the local grid. Water is heated via an Edwards solar heater with an electric booster for cloudy periods.
A spacious living dining and kitchen are tastefully furnished. For the traditionalists a wonderful new Esse wood stove provides an alternative to the modern electrical oven and induction cooktop that sits beside it. The kitchen is suited to the chef in the family with high quality equipment. We do our very best to keep the knives sharp!

A big TV is now linked via digital signal to the Tasmanian network. A small DVD library is provide for entertainment. A Telstra modem provides basic internet services by wireless through the house
