About this property

Seabreeze Cottage bushland setting 300m to beach

Seabreeze Cottage is located in a quiet bushland setting but still very close to all the amenities of beautiful Avoca Beach. Relax on the balcony with the sounds of birds in the tree tops. The surf and children's rock pool are an easy 3 minute walk away. The Avoca Beach theatre is about 1 minute's walk 'just down the road'. There are a variety of alfresco cafes and restaurants to choose from, all within easy walking distance.

The house is our family holiday cottage. It was built by our father in the 1950s. It was updated by us when my sister and I took over ownership in 2008 and and the latest renovation has just been completed. We have endeavoured to keep the style in which it was built.

The cottage is on two levels. The main level has three bedrooms, one with an ensuite bathroom.
The main bathroom has a shower bath. There is also a shower and toilet in the laundry. The kitchen/living area and large balcony, part of which is covered, are also on this level.
The lower level has a separate entrance. There is a kitchenette in the foyer and two bedrooms, each with an ensuite bathroom.
Although the house is close to the beach it is in a secluded spot surrounded by trees. Birds frequently come to the balcony.

On the upper level, the main bedroom has a queen size bed with a trundle bed underneath. This bed can be rolled out and is suitable for a young child. The second bedroom has two single beds which can be joined together to make a queen-sized bed. The third bedroom has two single beds.

The kitchen is well equipped.

The living room opens on to a timber balcony and verandah that has a gate to help contain young children. The balcony is a very pleasant place to relax with views of the tree tops and the sounds of the birds.

The cottage has polished wood floors. There is air conditioner in the living area and ceiling fans in the living room and bedrooms.

Charming easy-going beach cottage. All you need for a chilled out stay. Plenty of spaces to relax and easy walk to the beach. Cute bandicoots scampering about at night in the garden. Birds aplenty. I’ll stay again.

Short walk to beach

Nice short walk to beach. Quite a steep grassy hill to get to the house but easy enough. House had everything we needed. Bed mattresses were not the best but for 2 nights it was bearable. Nice outlook surrounded by trees and ferns. Very fast and accurate communication from owner.

Brilliant

great communication, wonderful home. Its a short stroll downhill (ish) to the beach. I couldn't believe we got this great place and great location. (other places were closer to the beach and tiny flats) this is totally alone. Easy to communicate with the hosts were lovely. (there is a short stroll up to the house, about 30 meters that an incline, managed easily by everyone in our group but if you needed assistance walking you may ask further questions) lots of room, 3 bedrooms. Lots of outdoor space.

Lovely homely cottage

I stayed with a group of friends on the weekend and it was great. Would highly recommend it. The check in process & communication was very easy. The location is so close to Avoca beach, the cinema end, about 5 minutes walk if that. The beds were comfortable and the house is a good size and all kitchen amenities / utensils were available. We really enjoyed our stay. Only thing I wasn't aware of is that the 2nd bathroom is outside of the main house in the laundry. That should be highlighted in the listing. Also, you can't drive all the way to the house either as the driveway finishes and then you have to walk up a grass hill to get to the front door so wouldn't advise staying here if you have walking difficulties.

Perfect stay in lovely beach house

Our stay at the Seabreeze Cottage was splendid. Communication with the host was always super easy, as was the check in process. Property is everything advertised and more and the location is perfect: couple minutes walking distance from the beach and shops, but on a very quite street and a feel you are in the middle of the nature (because you are).

We stayed one night only

The setting of the property is idyllic. The location is almost perfect. In fairness to the property owner the weather and the blaring music from a nearby neighbour was out of her control. On entering the property, I felt, this could be my dream home. However, putting my renting for 3 nights only head back on I started to spot little things. The beds? Mattresses hard, really hard, blinds past their use by date, lamps dust encrusted. (It’s in the detail) By contrast the floors are beautiful. The garden lovely. In truth, we were driven away by awful mattresses and the weather.

About the host

Hosted by Julia Wright and Diana Nelson

Host profile image
My sister, Julia, and I inherited this property, built by our father in 1950s and we keep the style of the house to reflect our father's work.
Since we took over the cottage in 2008 it has been undergoing significant internal renovations. Most recently from January 2025. It now has five bedrooms and five bathrooms. Three of the bedrooms have ensuite bathrooms. One bathroom is combined with the laundry. Two of the bedrooms, each with an ensuite, are on the lower level of the house, with access on an outside path with steps. The lower level has an entrance foyer where there is a kitchenette with refrigerator, kettle, toaster and microwave. Floor plans of the two areas are included in the photos.

Why they chose this property

Our father chose this site in 1938. The house is nestled in trees on a slight rise above the street. It is only about three minutes walk to the beach.

What makes this property unique

The property is well-equipped and easy-care. It has a large balcony and is secluded while still being very close to the beach.
