Last Listing description (July 2026)

Directly opposite the open green parkland and just footsteps from the sand, this is one of those rare Caves Beach homes where lifestyle leads and everything else simply follows.

This is true front-row beachside living. Wake to salt air drifting through the home, wander across the park for a morning swim or surf check, and come home knowing your outlook is protected, with the ocean always just beyond.

From the upper level, living spaces capture the outlook to the coastline, with sliding doors opening onto a front balcony that immediately sets the tone for how this home is meant to be lived in. Morning coffee, afternoon reading, evening drinks with friends, it all happens here, with views of rolling waves and the sound of the ocean never far away.

The open plan living and dining areas are generous and light-filled, flowing seamlessly into the kitchen so entertaining always feels connected and easy.

The kitchen is practical, spacious and designed for real use, with excellent bench space, storage and a layout that allows you to cook while still engaging with family and guests. It anchors the upper level beautifully, supporting both everyday living and relaxed coastal entertaining.

Accommodation upstairs is calm and comfortable, with the main bedroom looking directly onto the front balcony, allowing you to wake to filtered ocean light and coastal breezes. This level also benefits from beautifully updated bathrooms, finished in soft, neutral tones with modern fixtures, walk-in showers and a sense of understated quality that feels fresh without being overdone.

Downstairs introduces an entirely different layer of living, ideal for families, guests or multi-generational flexibility. A large additional living zone opens directly to the covered outdoor entertaining area and pool, creating a resort-style environment that works in every season. Whether its summer afternoons spent poolside, kids coming and going with ease, or quieter evenings sheltered under the covered patio, this level is designed for comfort, space and versatility.

The in-ground swimming pool is private, sun-drenched and surrounded by established greenery, offering a genuine backyard retreat just moments from the beach. With direct access from the lower living areas and nearby bathroom facilities, it's a space that feels natural, functional and incredibly easy to enjoy.

Bedrooms are generous and flexible, ideal for teenagers, guests or extended family, while the renovated bathrooms continue the home's cohesive, modern feel. Every space has been thoughtfully considered, creating a home that feels substantial yet relaxed, polished yet welcoming.

What truly sets this property apart is its position. Directly opposite the park, moments from the sand, with coastal walks, surf breaks, cafes and the Caves Beach village atmosphere all within easy reach. This is a location that simply cannot be recreated, and one that will always be tightly held.

This home is perfectly suited to families wanting space without sacrificing lifestyle, downsizers seeking room for visitors and entertaining, or buyers who understand that when it comes to beachside property, position is everything and this one is exceptional.
