Deb's Shed

Summary:

Your island story begins at Deb’s Shed – where the bush whispers, the breeze soothes, and unforgettable memories are made. Arcadia’s Hidden Gem with Optional Private Flat



The Space:

Deb’s Shed – Arcadia’s Hidden Gem with additional downstairs unit available.



Tucked away at the end of a quiet cul-de-sac in Arcadia, where the bush meets the sea breeze, sits Deb’s Shed – a warm, welcoming island home where time slows down and nature wraps gently around you.

Wake up to the sounds of birdsong and wallabies rustling in the National Park that fringes the property. Wander barefoot across timber floors to the open deck, coffee in hand, and watch the morning light filter through the trees. This is what Magnetic Island is all about – peace, simplicity, and space to reconnect.



Deb’s Shed is designed for togetherness, yet offers privacy when you need it most. The main house upstairs is perched high on the block to catch the coastal breeze, sleeps six comfortably across three beautifully appointed bedrooms – including a king-sized master suite with its own balcony nestled in the treetops. The open-plan layout flows effortlessly from the kitchen and dining area to spacious decks where stories are shared over BBQs, laughter echoes in the afternoon sun, and quiet evenings are spent under the stars.



But there’s more to this island haven…









Discover the Secret Downstairs…



New to Deb’s Shed is a self-contained one-bedroom unit - available for an extra 1 or 2 guests for $150 more , tucked beneath the main home with its own private entrance. It’s the perfect hideaway – ideal for grandparents or couples seeking a little extra privacy while still being part of the group.

Step inside and you’ll find a peaceful open living space, a well-equipped kitchenette, and a cosy queen bedroom surrounded by lush bushland. Watch the light dance through the trees as you enjoy breakfast at your own dining table, or settle in with a book on the couch after a day at the beach.

This charming flat is available only when booking for 7 or 8 guests – a hidden gem within a gem, waiting to be discovered by those who need just a little more room.
