About this property
Architect Designed House Nestled in the Dunes
This architect-designed, eco-friendly property has been featured in magazines for its unique design, gorgeous sense of minimalist style and unique art works. This is the perfect holiday home for relaxing to the sounds of the way crashing on Goolwa Beach, in a spacious, light-filled, contemporary beach house.
Just walk out the back gate and you are on the path through the sand dunes to the beach. With outdoor living spaces at both the front and rear of the property, you can enjoy the outdoors at any time of the day.
The property features three queen beds in separate rooms (sleeping 6 guests), two bathrooms and an open-plan living, dining, and kitchen space. This is the perfect adults retreat, though kids are welcome too! Throw open the big sliding doors and enjoy the indoor/outdoor beach vibe.
There is a combustion stove for wood fire ambience in winter plus RC Air Conditioning for both summer and winter comfort. Entertainment options include a big-screen TV with a DVD player, Apple TV with access to Netflix (self-login) and Stan (guests can log in to their own account if they have one) and fast NBN WiFi.
The bedding configuration is:
Bedroom 1: Queen
Bedroom 2: Queen
Bedroom 3: Queen
The beds will be freshly made for guest arrival with sheets, pillowcases and quilt covers. Bath towels, mats, hand towels and tea towels are all supplied.
As with all Pet let properties, your well-behaved pets are very welcome inside. There is a fully enclosed rear yard, with fencing of approx 1m. Dogs will love the very short walk to the beach!
There is off-street parking for two or three cars. Please note that the garage is not available for guest use.
