Expressions of Interest Closing Thursday 7th August at 2pm (Unless Sold Prior)

Quiet mornings begin with the sound of the sea, just steps away. It’s a slower pace here, where the beach bookends the day, neighbours still stop for a chat, and the house feels resolved in every season, built to make the most of its surroundings. Designed by Fasham Johnson and immaculately maintained by the same family since, this single-level, three-bedroom plus study home embodies the hallmarks of enduring architecture, with a large corner allotment, passive solar orientation, and a thoughtful connection between indoors and out. 

Clerestory glazing, warm northern sun and raked ceilings shape a living environment that feels light, open and grounded. Two distinct zones extend to the garden outlooks, featuring expansive glass and sliding doors that encourage movement to the deck and BBQ terrace. A wood fire adds seasonal warmth to the formal living room, while the casual open-plan domain flows through to an oversized kitchen, appointed with European appliances, an island bench and sliding servery windows for entertaining. The laundry doubles as a walk-in pantry, with the generous space that is never found in modern homes today. 

The tranquil, fern-lined main bedroom features built-in robes and a spa en-suite, while the adjacent home office, currently fitted with joinery, offers flexibility as a fourth bedroom. Two further bedrooms follow to the rear, positioned on either side of a central bathroom and a separate WC. Outside, the gardens are low-maintenance, bird-attracting and established, with a cleverly screened utility yard and second frontage via Carisbrook Street, making it easy for the gardener to come and go.  

Positioned to harness the serenity of the beach yet close to it all, with Balnarring Village, Tulum Store, cafes, schools and Peninsula Link just minutes away, it’s simple in its design, natural in its setting, and perfectly in tune with the pace of the coast, complete with split system heating/AC, three 2,100L water tanks, garden irrigation and a double lock-up garage.
