Nestled on one of the Avoca’s best beachfront blocks, this stunning new weekender is close to the flags, yet exudes peace and privacy from behind the landmark Norfolk pines. It has it all: beach vistas, a north-east aspect and an old-school beach house but with ultra-modern convenience. Natural and recycled materials are featured throughout, with recycled Tallowood floors, and antique feature doors creating a vogue ambience. Think a dash of Whale Beach or Byron Bay on the beachfront at Avoca.
