About this property
The Shack Your Ultimate Family Escape by the Sea
Just a short walk from the ocean shoreline and close to local dining, The Dunes Golf Links and Peninsula Hot Springs, this home puts you near the region’s best experiences. Inside, generous living zones invite connection, with a fireplace for cosy evenings and a separate games area with ping pong. Cook in the full kitchen, dine alfresco on the leafy deck, or gather around the backyard firepit. With on-site parking and split-system heating and cooling, it’s an ideal base for your coastal escape. This seaside haven offers generous living zones for gathering, alongside tranquil spaces designed for quiet downtime. The main living area invites you to sink into the oversized sofa for movie nights, with a wood-burning fireplace adding warmth in cooler months. A second living zone doubles as a games space with a ping pong table and TV — perfect for friendly competition after a beach day.
The modern kitchen is equipped with a Nespresso machine, oven, stove, microwave, dishwasher and all cooking essentials to make group catering simple. Share meals around the expansive island bench with stools or gather in the adjacent dining area for relaxed evenings together.
Step outside and embrace the slow rhythm of coastal living. At the front, the elevated deck sets the scene for alfresco meals surrounded by leafy greenery, while the hanging egg chairs on the porch offer a peaceful spot for reading. At the back, the generous backyard features an open lawn and basketball hoop for casual games, with the firepit ready for stories and laughter beneath starlit skies.
When it’s time to rest, each bedroom offers its own calm retreat. The primary bedroom features a queen bed and an ensuite for added comfort and privacy. The second bedroom includes a queen bed and a single bed, while the third bedroom offers a queen bed. The fourth bedroom is fitted with three single bunk beds and its own TV — ideal for younger guests to create their own holiday zone. The home includes three full bathrooms plus a powder room for added convenience. The family bathroom features a full bathtub and separate shower, and a private laundry with a washer and dryer makes longer stays easy.
Split-system heating and cooling are installed in both living areas, the primary bedroom and the bunk room, with portable heaters in the remaining bedrooms. Driveway parking for two cars, Wi-Fi, books, and thoughtful touches complete this coastal retreat. During your stay, you and your group will have the entire house to yourselves. Please make yourselves at home!
Tucked into a quiet pocket, you’re just a five-minute walk from the ocean shoreline — perfect for morning walks, surf checks and sunset views along the rugged coast. Rye Pier and the Rye Foreshore are only a short drive away, offering sandy swimming beaches, grassy picnic areas and a tranquil waterfront atmosphere.
The vibrant dining scene along Point Nepean Road is also within easy reach, with popular spots including Del Posto 2409 for Italian, Ruby Modern Thai, Steam Restaurant for Asian fusion, Indian Villa Tandoori Kitchen and Papi’s Pizza, alongside casual cafés and takeaway options.
