Tucked away in the peaceful surrounds of West End/leeka, and set across 1.79 hectares, Black Shack offers a rare combination of privacy, natural beauty and a genuine connection to its surroundings. The home has been thoughtfully designed to make the most of its secluded setting, with the landscape visible from almost every angle.
Originally an owner-builder residence, the home has retained its character through a considered renovation, with beautiful timber elements and salvaged materials contributing to its warmth and individuality.
Inside, hardwood timber flooring runs throughout, complemented by a tiled bathroom and Nectre N15 freestanding fireplace. Expansive windows bring the surrounding landscape inside, framing the trees, gully and glimpses towards the ocean. Several of the larger windows are double glazed, with a combination of single and double glazing throughout.
The connection to the natural environment is one of Black Shack's defining features. Birdlife, wildlife and the surrounding landscape create a peaceful backdrop to everyday life, while the outdoor entertaining areas provide a natural extension of the home.
A Proven Short-Stay Opportunity

What began as a first home has evolved into a destination enjoyed by many others, with guests returning to experience the property's unique setting and relaxed coastal lifestyle.
