New listing - more information and photos coming soon !
Welcome to Moonee Retreat, a stunning modern home offering luxury and relaxation just 200 meters from the beach, with uninterrupted views of the National Park, and ocean views.
Located in the historic Catherine Hill Bay, this beautifully designed coastal retreat is only 1.5 hours from Sydney, making it the perfect escape.
The space
The home features spacious living areas, designer furnishings, and a large deck overlooking the tranquil reserve, providing an ideal setting to unwind.

Upstairs, you’ll find three queen bedrooms, all with walk-in robes, a large rumpus room, and a generous deck to soak in the views. This level also includes a spacious laundry and bathroom with bath.
