Last Listing description (July 2026)

Tucked quietly at the very end of Driftwood Close, with no passing traffic and nothing but coastal bushland stretching out behind you, this is one of Caves Beach's most flexible, lifestyle-rich and future-proof opportunities, two side-by-side dwellings on one title, only one step away from sub-division, set directly against the beachfront reserve with your own private access straight onto the dunes.

It's a golden opportunity to get into a sensational, quiet cul-de-sac, amongst other wonderful neighbours and beachside properties, just seconds from the surf.

It's the kind of position you rarely see and even more rarely get to own, wake up, wander barefoot through the reserve, and in minutes you're on the sand.

No roads to cross, no cars, no noise, just the sound of the breeze through the treetops and the distant roll of the waves.

From the top floor, the ocean appears like a living postcard, rolling blue water framed by native bushland, a view so magical you'll find yourself stopping mid-stride to take it all in.

Perfect for multi-generational families, investors, dual income seekers or anyone needing flexibility without compromise, this property lets you live in one home and lease the other, keep both for extended family, or continue the subdivision pathway that has already had the majority of background preparation completed.

Few properties in Caves Beach combine this location, this scale, and this level of future upside in one package.

The bigger of the two homes delivers generous family living, five bedrooms, three bathrooms, expansive open-plan living zones and a sun-soaked upper level framed by oversized windows that make the beachfront reserve feel like your private backyard.

When you're not on the beach, the in-ground pool becomes the natural gathering point, sparkling blue and easy care surrounds so you can spend more time enjoying the lifestyle and less time maintaining.

Next door, the second dwelling sits completely independent, with its own living spaces, full kitchen, bathrooms and outdoor areas, giving complete privacy and separation for long-term guests, adult children, grandparents or tenants.

Weekends feel like holidays, days stretch out longer, and the lifestyle takes over sand, sun, swims, surf, repeat.
