Some coastal properties are purely an investment. Some are purely a getaway. This one has spent years being both - and doing neither half-heartedly.
Booked, managed and maintained by Reef Encounters under an ongoing agreement, it generates $30,000+ per year in growing, fully hands-free income. Between bookings it has served as a much-loved family shack and holiday retreat - the kind of place fought over on the school holiday calendar.
Reef Encounters handles every guest, every booking and every repair - the current owner simply collects the returns. The income has grown every year since the agreement began. For an Adelaide or interstate buyer, this is as close to a set-and-forget coastal asset as exists in this market.
Built in 2010 by the current owner and meticulously maintained, the home offers approximately 204sqm of living across two generous levels on an 800sqm block - and it feels every bit of it. It is a properly proportioned home that accommodates large families and groups without compromise.
Downstairs, the fully renovated kitchen anchors the living zone with brand-new appliances, a built-in wall oven and microwave, and storage designed for feeding a crowd. A generous bedroom sits alongside a beautifully appointed bathroom with an oversized double shower - ideal after a day on the water or out at the national park. The refreshed undercover entertaining area extends the living zone outdoors seamlessly, and a private fire-pit beside a magnificent gum tree is where the best evenings end.
Upstairs, ducted reverse-cycle air conditioning runs throughout. A large flexible bedroom currently sleeps up to ten - perfect as a bunk retreat or easily reimagined as a games room or divided into additional bedrooms. A further bedroom with built-in robe sits alongside a well-appointed bathroom with double vanity and rainfall shower. The pool room connects directly to the outdoor BBQ entertaining area via the rear staircase, reinforcing the home's easy indoor-outdoor flow that guests and families alike keep coming back for.
The 50sqm double garage with 3.3m ceilings was built for boats and serious coastal living. A powered and concreted shed handles vehicles and equipment. Solar power, solar hot water and 53,000L of rainwater storage keep running costs low and the property largely self-sufficient season after season.
Walk to the beach, shops and township. Minutes to Dhilba GuurandaInnes National Park and world-class surf and fishing.
